One of the best books I have read all week...
 
Babbitt, by Sinclair Lewis.

One of the best books I have read in a while - do your self a favor and get a copy. A great summer read!


Quote:

Largely a satire of American culture, society, and behavior, its main theme focuses on the power of conformity, and the vacuity of middle-class American life.

Great read.

And if you liked Babbitt you'll love Updike's "Rabbit" series.

Another one on my list to read this summer!

Speaking of rabbits, I was going to read Watership Down but I can;t seem to find it. Maybe I'll get the book on tape and listen going to and from work.

If you want an abusing satire of culture, read A Confederacy of Dunces.
