Download or read book Babbit written by Sinclair Lewis and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the ruler of America" wherein the "tired American Businessman" wielded socioeconomic power not through his exceptionality but through militant conformity. Lewis portrayed the American businessman as a man deeply dissatisfied with and privately aware of his shortcomings; he is "the most grievous victim of his own militant dullness" who secretly longed for freedom and romance.

Babbitt was much anticipated because each novel presented a portrait of American society wherein "the principal character is brought into conflict with the accepted order of things, sufficiently to illustrate its ruthlessness.
