“Sin. Sin, Sin. You're all sinners. You're all doomed to perdition. You're all goin' to the painful, stinkin', scaldin', everlastin' tortures of a fiery hell, created by God for sinners, unless, unless, unless you repent.”
― Elmer Gantry

Elmer Gantry is a 20th Century historical classic novel by American author and Pulitzer Prize winner Sinclair Lewis. It was first published in the United States, and is a classic exposé, a religious fiction book of the long-standing culture of ignorant and evil exploitive "salvation artists."

This is the Nobel Prize-winning American author Sinclair Lewis’ book, the unabridged original banned edition published in 1927 of Elmer Gantry with historical annotation, an unmissable American literary classic, which is a book of drama for adults that could have just as easily been written today given the themes of religious fanaticism and hypocrisy.

Award Winning Movie Adaptation

Elmer Gantry, an American film drama, was released in 1960, it was a book made into a movie, a feature film adaptation of Sinclair Lewis’s historical fiction novel.

About

Universally recognized as a landmark in American literature, Elmer Gantry shocked readers with its candidness when it was first published in 1927. So scandalous was Lewis's portrayal of religion and that a Midwestern salesman charlatan could turn evangelist preacher that the novel was banned in several cities and denounced from pulpits across the nation.

This classic American book is as timely today as it was in 1927. Elmer Gantry and his heirs today, are still making a racket out of religion and fleecing the sheep. It is a blistering study into religious hypocrisy and the religious landscape of America during the turn of the century. Baptists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Methodists, Pentecostals, Catholics, Mormons are represented here with all their foibles and idiosyncrasies upon insincere Christianity. It is an insight into the American culture of Christian revivalism and evangelicalism with peeks into early Pentecostalism and New Thought spiritualism.

Elmer Gantry is an American dramatic expose fiction classic that belongs on every bookshelf.

“He had, in fact, got everything from the church and Sunday School, except, perhaps, any longing whatever for decency and kindness and reason”
― Elmer Gantry
