„Nu cunosc nici un alt roman american care s? prezinte cu mai mult? acurate?e adev?rata Americ?. [Babbitt] este un document social de prim rang.“ – H.L. Mencken, cronic? la apari?ia romanului, 1922 „Mi-a? dori s? fi scris eu Babbitt.“ – H.G. Wells „Babbitt este un om de afaceri modest, nu îndeajuns de important pentru a lupta cu institu?iile sacre c?rora americanul de rând ?i-a vândut sufletul ca s? se poat? bucura de pace ?i prosperitate. Înfrângerea SA, descris? cu força, admirabila în?elepciune ?i umorul unui mare scriitor, este înfrângerea unei întregi na?iuni. De aceea cartea a provocat o atât de profund? tulburare în America ?i a avut un succes atât de durabil. În spiritul acesta trebuie s? o citim dac? vrem s-o în?elegem ?i s? fim impresiona?i de ceea ce are ea s? ne transmit?.“ – Paul Morand „[Lewis ...] a administrat Statelor Unite un pumn drept în plexul solar, a imortalizat un personaj tipic american ?i a ad?ugat limbii noastre câteva cuvinte care au devenit moned? curent?.“ – The Times Clasici moderni Litera pune laolalt? scriitori moderni ale c?ror opere au devenit deja repere clasice. Cele mai importante, mai provocatoare, mai emo?ionante, mai revolu?ionare opere din ultimii 125 de ani – c?r?i care vor continua s? fie citite de la o genera?ie la alta.
