Overview

Signed by Mark Schorer, author of this "monumental study of one of the most famous authors in the twentieth century," Sinclair Lewis. "It was in many ways a disastrous life, full of sordid horror, and the book does not gloss over that. ...it treats Lewis's books and other writings chiefly as events in his life, and events that helped to form his character." Schorer was a noted English professor, writer and free speech advocate. "Schorer was called as an expert witness during the 1957 obscenity trial over the Allen Ginsberg poem Howl, and testified in defense of the poem. This incident is dramatized in the film Howl (2010), in which Schorer is portrayed by Treat Williams." Dust jacket has chipping and bumping. Foxing to top and side edge pages. Rubbing and bumping present.
