Arrowsmith: Pulitzer Prize Winner

With an afterword by E. L. Doctorowâ€”the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of one manâ€™s pursuit of intellectual freedom in the face of ignorance and corruption, from the author of Babbit

Arrowsmith, the most widely read of Sinclair Lewisâ€™s novels, is the incisive portrait of a man passionately devoted to science. As a bright, curious boy in a small Midwestern town, Martin Arrowsmith spends his free time in old Doc Vickersonâ€™s office avidly devouring medical texts. Destined to become a physician and a researcher, he discovers that societal forces of ignorance, greed, and corruption can be as life-threatening as the plague.Â

Part satire, part morality tale, Lewisâ€™s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel illuminates the mystery and power of science while giving enduring life to a singular American heroâ€™s struggle for integrity and intellectual freedom in a small-minded world.
