Summary
Dissects the character of a middle-class businessman whose search for material wealth and social status leaves him spiritually sterile and doomed to destruction in pre-Depression America
Amazon.com description: Product Description: General FictionLarge Print EditionBabbitt is a total conformist, loyal to whoever serves his need of the moment an opportunist in his business and personal life. Outwardly he conforms. Inwardly, his soul is empty. Filled with rationalizations and sentimentality, he doesnt see his own corruption. With his portrait of George F. Babbitt, the conniving, rich real estate man from Zenith, Sinclair Lewis created one of the ugliest, yet most convincing figures in American literature.
