It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis
How can we prevent another January 6th? To combat far-right forces, one action is to get this outrageous, gripping thriller into the hands of young people across the U.S. This new revision distills Sinclair Lewis’s sprawling 1935 masterpiece to 140 pages. It is now a taut, breathless story for a new generation of readers.
- Feel the dread as newly elected U.S. president Buzz Windrip, a charismatic buffoon, and his gang of thugs quickly seize control of Congress, the courts, the military, colleges and universities, and the media.
- Ache as democratic institutions—elections, justice, the rule of law, our Constitution—are destroyed.
- Experience the outrage as anyone who dares to object is beaten, imprisoned, or murdered.
- Follow the story through Doremus Jessup, a small town New Hampshire newspaper editor, as he joins the underground resistance, putting everyone he loves in danger.
- Discover this brilliant satire—alternately hilarious and horrifying—written in Sinclair Lewis’s mad dash to warn Americans of the rise of fascism, echoing the emergence of Hitler’s Nazi Party.
What could happen if America elects a dictator? Sinclair Lewis had already won the Pulitzer Prize and Nobel Prize when he imagined such a scenario in It Can’t Happen Here, his most enduring novel. He warns us that it can happen here if we fail to fulfill our most basic responsibility—to protect our democracy from evildoers.
It Can’t Happen Here is a must-read for all young Americans, especially now.
