Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
A blockbuster success when it was first released in 1927, Sinclair Lewis' "Elmer Gantry" tells the story of a self-absorbed, narcissistic young drifter who - seeking easy money - is drawn into the world of Evangelism and manages to become a successful minister despite his serial sexual indiscretions.
Upon its publication, this satire of religious hypocrisy in America was denounced in pulpits from coast-to-coast and the book was banned and vilified by scores of clerics and religious figures as blasphemous (ironically helping to boost sales).
A towering literary achievement, "Elmer Gantry" has been adapted for the stage and screen numerous times and the book itself has become an American classic. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
