"Babbitt" by Sinclair Lewis, published in 1922, is a satirical novel that critiques the conformity and materialism of American middle-class life in the 1920s. The story follows George F. Babbitt, a successful but deeply dissatisfied real estate agent in the fictional city of Zenith, who epitomizes the conventional, consumer-driven lifestyle. Through Babbitt's struggles with societal expectations and his brief rebellion against them, Lewis exposes the emptiness of the American Dream and the pressures of social conformity. The novel is considered a classic work of American literature and a sharp critique of the era's culture.
