Sinclair Lewis

Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951) was an American novelist and playwright who in 1930 became the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. His novels, including Main Street, Babbitt, Arrowsmith, and It Can't Happen Here, are brilliant satires of American society, small-town life, and institutional hypocrisy. Arrowsmith follows an idealistic young doctor navigating the compromises of medical science and ambition.
