Babbitt, first published in 1922, is a satirical novel by Sinclair
Lewis. Largely a critique of American culture, society, and
behaviour, it challenges conformity and "the American Dream."
Middle-aged George F. Babbitt, a property developer is a leading
citizen in the town of Zenith. He is lovingly married to his wife
Myra, with whom he has three children. Despite all his professional
success and nice family, Babbitt believes he is living a dull,
staid, middle-class life. He starts searching for a greater purpose
but his life is poised on a slippery slope. His journey raises
thought-provoking questions which were as relevant then as they are
today.
