Elmer Gantry

Sinclair Lewisâ€™ world-famous satire of religious hypocrisy and the excesses of the Roaring Ê¼20s.
Â
Universally recognized as a landmark in American literature, Elmer Gantry scandalized readers when it was first published, causing Sinclair Lewis to be â€œinvitedâ€ to a jail cell in New Hampshire and to his own lynching in Virginia. His portrait of a golden-tongued evangelist who rises to power within his churchâ€”a saver of souls who lives a life of duplicity, sensuality, and ruthless self-indulgenceâ€”is also the record of a period, a reign of grotesque vulgarity, which but for Lewis would have left no trace of itself. Elmer Gantry has been called the greatest, most vital, and most penetrating study of hypocrisy that has been written since the works of Voltaire.
