Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Reprint. Reprint. Brand new from publisher. 2024 Trade Paperback. xv, 384 pp. Includes a new introduction by Michael Meyer, and a bibliography of Lewis's works, as well as works of biography and criticism. A satirical work of dystopian fiction envisioning an American dictatorship. The causes for the descent into fascism are authentic, making the novel an insightful glimpse of what it looks like to trade one set of evils for another. Lewis wrote the book during the Great Depression, basing the dictatorship on Hitler's, but replacing hateful indoctrination with misleading appeals to American values. Many believe the novel to be a direct reaction to the possible candidacy of Huey Long for president in 1936. It was published five years after Lewis became the first American writer to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. Lewis also won (and declined) the Pulitzer Prize for his 1925 novel Arrowsmith.…

Trade Paperback. A new copy. "The novel that foreshadowed Donald Trump's authoritarian appeal."--Salon It Can't Happen Here is the only one of Sinclair Lewis's later novels to match the power of Main Street, Babbitt, and Arrowsmith. A cautionary tale about the fragility of democracy, it is an alarming, eerily timeless look at how fascism could take hold in America. Written during the Great Depression, when the country was largely oblivious to Hitler's aggression, it juxtaposes sharp political satire with the chillingly realistic rise of a president who becomes a dictator to save the nation from welfare cheats, sex, crime, and a liberal press. Called "a message to thinking Americans" by the Springfield Republican when it was published in 1935, It Can't Happen Here is a shockingly prescient novel that remains as fresh and contemporary as today's news.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - LOS MEJORES TIMADORES, LADRONES, GRANUJAS Y RUFIANES DE LA ÉPOCA DE SHERLOCK HOLMES, REUNIDOS EN UN SOLO VOLUMEN.GRANT ALLEN, GUY BOOTHBY, E. W. HORNUNG, ROBERT BARR, ARNOLD BENNETT, WILLIAM LE QUEUX, O. HENRY, GEORGE RANDOLPH CHESTER, FREDERICK IRVING ANDERSON, WILLIAM HOPE HODGSON, SINCLAIR LEWIS Y EDGAR WALLACE.Aunque las hazañas de los detectives más importantes de la época victoriana se han reunido en incontables antologías, los grandes artistas de la estafa y el robo habían eludido hasta ahora la captura. Estos doce relatos sobre villanos y sus fechorías ;auténtico subgénero de la literatura policiaca; vienen a remediar ese descuido y congrega en un solo volumen a los más encantadores sinvergüenzas de la era del alumbrado de gas, entre mediados de la década de 1890 y principios de los años veinte del siglo XX. J. Raffles, el coronel Clay, Fortuna-Rápida Wallingford, el infalible Godahl. Los legendarios criminales de estas historias se arman con su ingenio más que con pistolas. El lector encontrará, pues, falsificaciones de arte y contrabando de diamantes, pero ningún cadáver en la biblioteca. Sus escandalosas fechorías, que cuestionan el ideal de conducta de la sociedad victoriana y sus groseros valores materialistas, son en realidad un robinhoodiano esfuerzo por equilibrar la balanza de la justicia y redistribuir la riqueza más allá de las propias arcas. Pero ya sea robando en Londres o estafando en Nueva York, lo que queda claro en esta antología es que, ante todo, tanto autores como personajes se lo están pasando verdaderamente en grande.…
