The first American to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, Sinclair Lewis was revered for his vigorous and graphic art of description and his ability to fashion, with wit and humour, innovative and inspiring characters. Masterpieces such as ‘Main Street’, ‘Babbitt’, 'Arrowsmith' and ‘Dodsworth’ are noted for their critical views of American capitalism and materialism in the interwar period, while promoting strong characterisations of modern working men and women. This comprehensive eBook presents Lewis’ collected works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts appearing in digital print for the first time, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
