George Washington to New Hampshire, 29 December 1777 (Detail, GLC03706) America Between the Wars: Excerpt from Chapter XIV of Babbitt , by Sinclair Lewis by Allan J. Ruter The Glenbrook High Schools, Glenview, IL Lewis, Sinclair. Babbitt . New York: Random House, Inc. (Modern Library Paperback Edition), 2002. America's first Nobel laureate in literature, Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951), produced some of the sharpest social criticism of the early twentieth century. In his novel Babbitt , first published in 1922, Lewis skewers American business through the story of George Babbitt, real estate salesman in the fictional Midwestern city of Zenith. In the following excerpt from George Babbitt's address to the Zenith Real Estate Board, Lewis satirizes the conformity and mediocrity of America's rapidly growing middle class. "'Finally, but most important, our Standardized Citizen, even if he is a bachelor, is a lover of the Little Ones, a supporter of the hearthstone which is the basic foundation of our civilization, first, last, and all the time, and the thing that most distinguishes us from the decayed nations of Europe . . . .

Random House 659 pp. $35 In 1960, at a writers' luncheon at Trader Vic's in San Francisco, I said to Mark Schorer that, having spent so many years working on his monumental biography of Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951), he must have grown very fond of his subject. "On the contrary," he replied. "I like him less every day, every week, every month, and every year."
