Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Significance of Sinclair
Now Main Street, a criticism of contemporary life with special reference to its interest and beauty, is important to us socially because, more thoroughly than any novel Since Uncle Tom's Cabin, it has shaken our complacency with regard to the average quality of our civilization. But it and the other work of Mr. Lewis which I shall discuss, are equally important to our literature as a return to the main matter and the manner of our national narrative.
