About this product

Product Information

New to Penguin Classics, Lewis's 1935 bestseller about a demagogue who becomes president of the United States is 'frighteningly contemporary'. It's 1935 and discontent is rife in America. From the political margins appears Buzz Windrip, charismatic presidential candidate and 'inspired guesser at what political doctrines the people would like'. Sweeping to power amid mass elation, he promises wealth for all and the dawn of a glorious new era. Small-town newspaper editor Doremus Jessop is worried, especially when the new regime becomes increasingly authoritarian. But what can one individual do to fight an all-powerful state? Sinclair Lewis's terrifying cautionary tale pits liberal complacency against popular fascism and shows- yes, it really can happen here.

  • READ THIS BOOK AND SHARE IT BECAUSE IT CAN HAPPEN HERE

    This is a very important book because I think it forewarns us all how complacency can lead us sleepwalking into a very dark place. It was written in 1935 at a time when the world was a very troubled place, fast forward several decades and the same demons are stirring. The rise of fascism, the unhappiness of the masses, economic troubles and state control of the media and police.

  • It could happen anywhere

    Language and style difficult initially but certainly worth persevering.

  • Trump?

    A grotesque self-regarding populist candidate is elected US president. This prophetic novel, written in 1936, charts the consequent downfall of the USA.
