Welcome to The Sinclair Lewis Library - a dignified little institution devoted to the careful airing of American ambition, middle-class certainty, and the curious art of taking oneself very seriously. Here, the streets are tidy, the rhetoric is polished, and the human comedy is forever peeking through the curtains. Each episode presents a full reading from Lewis’s novels, where boosters boast, reformers reform, and respectable citizens discover (sometimes to their alarm) that respectability can be the strangest costume of all.

Settle in as boardrooms, parlors, laboratories, and Main Streets come briskly to life. Whether you arrive as a loyal Babbitt or a secret rebel, this podcast offers a front-row seat to satire that still feels uncomfortably familiar. Consider it your weekly civic meeting, only far more honest and considerably better read.Public domain

    In which a young mechanic, newly freed from his workshop drudgery, embraces the open road with wide-eyed enthusiasm, absorbing the mannerisms and refinements of travelling men and newly discovered literature while shadowing a spirited young woman ahead. His romantic hopes and insecurities mingle with poetic musings beneath the vast prairie skies, as he camps in haunted farms and navigates the bittersweet pangs of admiration and solitude on his adventurous journey.
