Produktbeschreibung
'Babbitt' represents one of Sinclair's most profound and thought-provoking works of satire and resulted in Sinclair winning the Nobel prize. The story follows George Babbitt, owner of a successful real-estate business, husband to a stunning wife and father of three children. he seemingly has everything a person could want and yet happiness eludes him. Finding himself in this maelstrom of emotion George Babbitt decides to strike out against the machine of society; among other acts of dissent, he dabbles with liberal politics and decides to have an affair. But will the cost of this rebellion be a price Babbitt is willing to pay?The novel is a criticism of a superficial and materialistic society that has come to place 'things' at the centre of our existence, where we are expected to behave and act a certain way. It is a haunting, humorous and profound novel that remains incredibly relevant to this day, if you loved Christian Bale's 'American Psycho', you'll love this classic.-
