Sinclair Lewis N ovelista estadounidense muy imitado por escritores posteriores, tanto en su estilo naturalista como en su temática. Lewis cambió la tradicional visión romántica y complaciente de la vida estadounidense por otra mucho más realista, e incluso amarga. Nació en Sauk Center (Minnesota), el 7 de febrero de 1885 y estudió en la Universidad de Yale. De 1907 a 1916 trabajó como reportero y editor literario. En Calle mayor (1920), Lewis desarrolla por primera vez un tema que se convertirá en leitmotif de sus principales obras: la monotonía, la frustración emocional y la falta de valores espirituales e intelectuales de la clase media estadounidense. Su novela Babbitt (1922) ofrece un retrato despiadado del arquetipo del hombre de negocios de una ciudad pequeña que acepta ciegamente los valores sociales materialistas y éticos de su entorno. La palabra 'Babbitt', que designa a este tipo de persona, ha pasado a formar parte de la lengua común. En El doctor Arrowsmith (1925), expone la falta de idealismo científico que en ocasiones se observa entre los médicos; Elmer Gantry (1927) retrata la figura de un falso e hipócrita líder religioso infiltrado en la iglesia Protestante. Otras de sus novelas, como

Stanley K. Schultz, Professor of History William P. Tishler, Producer Shane Hamilton, Web Editor Lewis, Sinclair Writer (1885-1951) Born in Sauk Center, Minnesota, Lewis graduated from Yale University in 1908. Over the next few years, he traveled throughout the country, working sporadically as a free-lance writer. He published his first novel in 1914, and achieved some early popular success with stories written for magazines like The Saturday Evening Post . He established his literary reputation in the 1920s with a series of satirical novels about contemporary American mores, including Main Street Babbitt Arrowsmith Elmer Gantry (1927) and Dodsworth (1929). In these novels, Lewis savagely mocked the provincialism, conformism and hypocrisy he saw at the heart of middle American culture. His central characters strive to escape their emotionally and intellectually repressive environments, with varying degrees of success. In 1926, he turned down the Pulitzer Prize awarded him for Arrowsmith . In 1930, however, he accepted the Nobel Prize for Literature, bestowed "for his vigorous and graphic art of description and his ability to create, with wit and humor, new types of characters."
