    About this ebook

    Sinclair Lewis's 'Arrowsmith' is a groundbreaking novel that follows Martin Arrowsmith, a young, idealistic medical student who becomes a doctor and struggles to balance his ethical beliefs with the realities of medical practice. Written in a straightforward and realistic style, Lewis's work provides a thought-provoking examination of the medical profession in the early 20th century, addressing issues of scientific advancement, commercialization of medicine, and personal integrity. The novel is a classic example of American naturalism, showcasing Lewis's keen observation of society and human nature. This unabridged edition allows readers to delve into the full depth and complexity of Arrowsmith's journey. Sinclair Lewis, a Nobel Prize-winning author known for his satirical portrayals of American society, drew on his own experiences and research in the medical field to create a compelling narrative that continues to resonate with readers today. 'Arrowsmith' is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of medicine, ethics, and personal ambition, offering a timeless exploration of the challenges faced by those in pursuit of scientific truth and moral integrity.

    Sinclair Lewis

    Nobel Prize-winning writer Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951) is best known for novels like Main Street, Babbitt, Arrowsmith (for which he was awarded but declined the Pulitzer Prize), and Elmer Gantry. A writer from his youth, Lewis wrote for and edited the Yale Literary Magazine while a student, and started his literary career writing popular stories for magazines and selling plots to other writers like Jack London. Lewis’s talent for description and creating unique characters won him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930, making him the first American writer to win the prestigious award. Considered to be one of the “greats” of American literature, Lewis was honoured with a Great Americans series postage stamp, and his work has been adapted for both stage and screen.
