Synopsis

"Humor is next to Godliness." ― Sinclair Lewis, Mantrap To create Mantrap (1926), Sinclair Lewis adapted journals his brother Claude kept while the two traveled in Canada two years before the book appeared. In it, the author created the story of New York lawyer Ralph Prescott's journey into the Saskatchewan territory and of his adventures there. Two separate films, Mantrap (1926) and Untamed (1940), both of which were based on the story, were produced.

À propos de l'auteur

(HARRY) SINCLAIR LEWIS (1885-1951) was the first American author to receive a Nobel Prize in Literature. Both a novelist and a playwright, he was especially gifted with an ability to write political and social satire, and the characters he created, such as Babbitt, have become synonymous with the value systems they portrayed. Besides Babbitt (1922), some of Lewis's other landmark books include Arrowsmith (1925) and Elmer Gantry (1927 ).
