Book Review of Babbitt

Babbitt
Babbitt
Author: Sinclair Lewis
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


An interesting picture of a man who is disconnected from himself. Said to be an indictment of business, but I see it as rather what can happen when we put all our focus on externals in general.
Slow going if you are used to modern pulp fiction, but well worth the effort to enjoy the development of the character which is Babbitt, a businessman.
