Martin Arrowsmith, a young medical student at the University of
Winnemac, is driven by a sincere passion and a desire to make a
positive contribution to the world. But events get in the way, and
a series of personal vicissitudes, love interests and societal
pressures threaten to lead him away from the path of pure science
– until he is forced, in the face of a humanitarian crisis, to
decide between scientific rigour and compassion, between
maintaining his medical principles and saving lives. First
published in 1925 to great critical acclaim, Arrowsmith is the
third major novel by Sinclair Lewis, author of Main Street and
Babbitt, and arguably his most ambitious work. Awarded the Pulitzer
Prize for Fiction in 1926 – which the author famously declined
– it contributed to Lewis’s growing reputation as a master
storyteller, social commentator and the unsurpassed satirist of his
time.

Published during the heyday of fascism in Europe, It Can't Happen
Here is a chilling cautionary tale by one of the greatest American
writers of the twentieth century, which is still startlingly
relevant almost a century later. Charting the rise to power of
Berzelius 'Buzz' Windrip, who whips his supporters into a frenzy
while promising drastic reform under a banner of patriotism and
traditional values, It Can't Happen Here decries the tactics used
by politicians to mobilise voters, and exposes the danger of
authoritarianism arising from populist platforms, and the chaos
such regimes can leave in their wake.

Martin Arrowsmith, brilliant but licentious, makes his way from his
small Midwest town to New York City. Getting his start at medical
school, Martin sets out on a series of affairs, bouncing from woman
to woman and job to job, hungry to satisfy his desires as both a
man and a man of science. Just as it appears he'll be able to
settle down, he finds himself back among the scientific elite and
faced with a discovery that can change his life. Written in
conjunction with science writer Paul de Kruif, Arrowsmith is one of
the first books to address the culture of science in a period of
medical education reform. A critical and commercial success, the
book earned Sinclair Lewis the 1926 Pulitzer Prize, which the
author would go on to decline. Professionally typeset with a
beautifully designed cover, this edition of Arrowsmith is a classic
of science literary fiction, reimagined for modern readers.

"father" or "mother", the couple have remained as affectionate and
passionate as newlyweds, and both are energetic despite their old
age. Though they feel young and full of life, their adult daughter,
with whom they share a difficult relationship with, and the rest of
society, hardly agrees. It is suggested that the couple consider
retiring and moving to an assisted living facility. Disenfranchised
and underestimated, Mrs. and Mr. Appleby resent the assumption that
their lives are over, and in attempt to satiate their desires and
prove the others wrong, they decide to take a risk. Working toward

After a family member tragically falls ill, Una Golden was forced
to move from Pennsylvania to New York in order to get a job to help
support her family. Set in the early 1900s, going to the big city
as a single woman was daunting and unconventional, but Una is
dedicated to helping her family. After diligently job searching and
excelling in additional training and education, Una discovers that
she has the skills to be a talented commercial real estate agent.
Though Una is very good at her job, and the company value her, the
male-dominant real estate field suggests that it is a job exclusive
to men. Because of this, Una is forced to work twice as hard to
earn the same respect and equity that her male coworkers are freely
given. Meanwhile, Una tries to manage her love life, because it is
expected for a woman to get married and Una desires a partnership.
However, the sexist social standard for women expects women to work
a meaningless job before marriage, and since Una is so skilled in
her field, many men are too intimidated or insecure to consider her
as a potential wife. Frustrated and overworked, Una is about to
give up hope when she meets Edward, a charming salesman. As their
romance begins to develop and Una remains dedicated to her career,
she learns more about herself, encouraging her to defy convention
to achieve her dreams. The Job is praised as an early advocate for
the rights of working women, a cause that author Sinclair Lewis was
very dedicated to. With unforgettable and authentic prose and
characters, The Job is an intriguing depiction of the 20th century
workplace in America, accompanying the compelling perspective with
themes of equality, gender roles, and class divides. This edition

Born into the first generation of an immigrant family from Norway,
Carl Ericson was always bound to have differing philosophies than
his parents. However, when these new, free-thinking ideas result in
an expulsion from college, Carl must find a way to fit in with the
society's culture and values without stifling his independence.
However, Carl has a difficult time achieving this in the rigid
workplace standards of the 20th century. He becomes a vagabond of

and unsatisfied. Slowly, he feels himself sinking into despair,
feeling unmotivated until he hears of a career opportunity in
aviation. Excited, Carl begins training to fly airplanes
immediately, working long enough to earn the nickname of "Hawk".
Since airplanes were a relatively new invention, flying was highly
experimental and dangerous. This hadn't bothered Carl when he first
started, but now, as an older man, Carl begins to worry when he
hears the rising deaths in the field. Conflicted and concerned,
Carl decides to quit the job. As Carl continues on with his life,
he feels that he made the right choice but is still sad to leave
the profession. Now back in the same position he was in years

Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize for
literature, and a writer lauded both for his craft and his
principles, wrote The Job as a statement of female empowerment, and
self-determination over societal expectation. Written in the early
years of the 1900s Lewis' central character, highly unusual for the
era, is a woman, Una Golden, who gains work in an exclusively male
world of commercial real estate. Golden struggles for the
recognition of her male peers while balancing romantic and work
life; she marries, divorces, continues to work hard and finally
emerges triumphant on her own terms. Flame Tree 451 presents a new
series, The Foundations of Feminist Fiction. The early 1900s saw a
quiet revolution in literature dominated by male adventure heroes.
Both men and women moved beyond the norms of the male gaze to write
from a different gender perspective, sometimes with female
protagonists, but also expressing the universal freedom to write on
any subject whatsoever. Each book features a brand new biography
and a new glossary of Literary, Gothic and Victorian terms.

"It Can't Happen Here" is the only one of Sinclair Lewis's later
novels to match the power of "Main Street, ""Babbitt," and
"Arrowsmith." A cautionary tale about the fragility of democracy,
it is an alarming, eerily timeless look at how fascism could take
hold in America. Written during the Great Depression, when the
country was largely oblivious to Hitler's aggression, it juxtaposes
sharp political satire with the chillingly realistic rise of a
president who becomes a dictator to save the nation from welfare
cheats, sex, crime, and a liberal press. Called "a message to
thinking Americans" by the" Springfield Republican" when it was
published in 1935, "It Can't Happen Here "is a shockingly prescient
novel that remains as fresh and contemporary as today's news.
With an Introduction by Michael Meyer
and a New Afterword
The only one of Sinclair Lewis's later novels to match the power
of Main Street, Babbitt, and Arrowsmith, It Can't Happen Here is a
cautionary tale about the fragility of democracy, an alarming,
eerily timeless look at how fascism could take hold in America.
Written during the Great Depression when America was largely
oblivious to Hitler's aggression, it juxtaposes sharp political
satire with the chillingly realistic rise of a President who
becomes a dictator to save the nation from welfare cheats, rampant
promiscuity, crime, and a liberal press. Now finally back in print,
It Can't Happen Here remains uniquely important, a shockingly
prescient novel that's as fresh and contemporary as today's
news.
"Written at white heat." --Chicago Tribune
"A message to thinking Americans." --Springfield Republican
"Not only Lewis's] most important book but one of the most
important books ever produced in this country." --The New
Yorker
'An eerily prescient foreshadowing of current affairs' Guardian
'Not only Lewis's most important book but one of the most important
books ever produced in the United States' New Yorker A vain,
outlandish, anti-immigrant, fearmongering demagogue runs for
President of the United States - and wins. Sinclair Lewis's
chilling 1935 bestseller is the story of Buzz Windrip,
'Professional Common Man', who promises poor, angry voters that he
will make America proud and prosperous once more, but takes the
country down a far darker path. As the new regime slides into
authoritarianism, newspaper editor Doremus Jessup can't believe it
will last - but is he right? This cautionary tale of liberal
complacency in the face of populist tyranny shows it really can
happen here.
