✦ Synopsis


Sinclair Lewis's Nobel Prize–winning satire of the American middle class
Zenith is like many American cities in the wake of the First World War: midsize, industrial, booming with opportunities for enterprising capitalists. But Zenith is unique as a middling metropolis; within its wandering streets walks one George Babbitt, world-class realtor, American dreamer, social climber, and civic booster.

But unexpectedly, dark clouds appear on Babbitt's horizon: his best friend, a convicted murderer? His eldest daughter, a wretched socialist? Coddled by the trappings of his professional and personal success, how can Babbitt become stricken with loneliness, dissatisfaction, and frustration?

First published in 1922, Lewis Sinclair's contentious bestselling satire of middle-class America is more relevant than ever.
