Sinopse

Babbitt as you haven't seen it before -- in a remarkable illustrated edition. 
In the thriving city of Zenith, where success is measured in square footage and the number of cylinders under your car’s hood, George F. Babbitt is the ultimate model of middle-class ambition. A prosperous real estate broker, a devoted family man, and a loyal member of every respectable business club, Babbitt has everything a man could want—except the one thing he never dares to name: freedom. 
But beneath the polished surface of his life, a restless longing stirs. He tries to silence it with cigars, committee meetings, and booster-club speeches about the greatness of American progress. He laughs too loud at bad jokes and talks too much about the price of office buildings. He convinces himself that he is happy—until one day, the illusion shatters. 
When Babbitt dares to step off the treadmill of conformity, he finds himself swept into a whirlwind of rebellion—late nights at speakeasies, dangerous friendships, and even an affair that ignites a spark of long-forgotten passion. But in Zenith, there’s no room for dreamers. The very world he helped build threatens to crush him the moment he strays from its rules. 
Will George Babbitt break free, or will he be pulled back into the safe, suffocating embrace of the life he knows? 
Sharp, biting, and unexpectedly moving, Babbitt is more than a novel—it’s a mirror held up to society, exposing the timeless struggle between individuality and the need to belong. Sinclair Lewis’s classic satire remains as relevant today as it was a century ago, reminding us that the price of success may be the very soul we long to save.
