À propos de cet audio

Welcome to The Sinclair Lewis Library - a dignified little institution devoted to the careful airing of American ambition, middle-class certainty, and the curious art of taking oneself very seriously. Here, the streets are tidy, the rhetoric is polished, and the human comedy is forever peeking through the curtains. Each episode presents a full reading from Lewis’s novels, where boosters boast, reformers reform, and respectable citizens discover (sometimes to their alarm) that respectability can be the strangest costume of all.

Settle in as boardrooms, parlors, laboratories, and Main Streets come briskly to life. Whether you arrive as a loyal Babbitt or a secret rebel, this podcast offers a front-row seat to satire that still feels uncomfortably familiar. Consider it your weekly civic meeting, only far more honest and considerably better read.Public domain

Amidst the gentle gloom of provincial life and the stern practicalities imposed by the Tozer clan, Martin confronts the harsh realities of love, duty, and the precarious promise of a future in medicine.
