#QuoteOfTheDay: #SinclairLewis

✒️📖 #OTD in the #History of #Literature 4 October 1910, the author #JackLondon, feeling a lack of origination for his stories, purchased nine plotlines from the young author #SinclairLewis for $52.50. London and Lewis had met through their shared interest in Socialism.

@Lana
Did #SinclairLewis say, “When #Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross”?
This quote sounds like something Sinclair Lewis might have said or written, but we’ve never been able ...

This book again reinforces my views that the fascist playbook is a simple one, as are the minds of those that are duped by it. A fatiguing read due to the state of our country. Great writing. It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis. It can and has.

Years ago I read the S Lewis book; It Can’t Happen Here.

I couldn’t believe it.

The Trump regime has brought the American world as described by #SinclairLewis to life.

and Orwell’s 1984.”

"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”

~~ #SinclairLewis

Some people will remember this movie (1960). It had some remarkable parallels with the former president. Hubris. Greed. #BurtLancaster #ElmerGantry #SinclairLewis
