ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In 1935, Sinclair Lewis wrote It Can’t Happen Here—a chilling novel about a populist demagogue who promises every citizen cash payouts, rallies anti-immigrant fervor, and steadily dismantles democracy from within.
Lewis wasn’t just writing fiction; he was issuing a warning.
On the latest episode of Trey’s Table, we examine the life and work of Sinclair Lewis, the first American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. From his sharp critique of American fascism to his groundbreaking 1947 novel Kingsblood Royal—inspired by his close friendship with NAACP leader Walter White—we break down why Lewis’s words are more urgent today than ever.
