A review by blueyorkie
O Doutor Arrowsmith by Sinclair Lewis

4.0

A Novel in which the writer analyses the adverse effects of mercantilist zeal on the man of science.
We can thus reveal, in the discursive fabric of the text, an apology for the values of the spirit, practically dying in a society in which everything becomes a tradable good. Nevertheless, the novel structure shows the protagonist's moral integrity and dignity, giving the story an aura of idealism not achieved in the author's previous works.
