I just finished Lewis's Babbitt yesterday! I feel like it showed the opulence of 20's America better than Gatsby, if only because it showed it through the lens of the "regular guy", the middle class that we see around us every day, rather than Fitzgerald's mega-rich characters.

Excellent take. Thanks for sharing. :-)

"Gideon Planish" by Sinclair Lewis is not a product of the 1920's. It was published in 1942. The book the program should have listed by Lewis was "Arrowsmith."
