PENGUIN MODERN CLASSICS IT CAN HAPPEN HERE -...

It's 1935 and discontent is rife in America. From the political margins appears Buzz Windrip 
charismatic presidential candidate and 'inspired guesser at what political doctrines the people
would like'. Sweeping to power amid mass elation  he promises wealth for all and the dawn of a
glorious new era. Small-town newspaper editor Doremus Jessop is worried  especially when the
new regime becomes increasingly authoritarian. But what can one individual do to fight an
all-powerful state? Sinclair Lewis's terrifying cautionary tale pits liberal complacency
against popular fascism and shows: yes  it really can happen here.
