Sinclair Lewis, 1922

Date read: 5/11/24

Much like Main Street, this novel was about rebelling from society (we live in a society!) And being drug back in. I dont really get it because I don't have all the social pressures the characters have. I used to belong to a church and I remember the peer pressure there, so I guess I do get it a little, but, not as severely.

At any rate, it was kinda boring really.
