Arrowsmith (Unabridged)
This eBook has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Arrowsmith is a novel by American author Sinclair Lewis, which won him the Pulitzer Prize …which Lewis declined. Arrowsmith is an early major novel dealing with the culture of science. It was written in the period after the reforms of medical education flowing from the Flexner Report on Medical Education in the United States and Canada: A Report to the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, 1910, which had called on medical schools in the United States to adhere to mainstream science in their teaching and research. The actual story deals with trials and tribulations of Martin Arrowsmith, a brilliant doctor and scientist who wants to conquer the plague virus from spreading. But the price comes at a very heavy cost. A must read!

The Job (Unabridged)
This eBook has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. The Job is considered an early declaration of the rights of working women. The focus is on the main character, Una Golden, and her desire to establish herself in a legitimate occupation while balancing the eventual need for marriage. The story takes place in the early 1900-1920s and takes Una from a small Pennsylvania town to New York. Forced to work due to family illness, Una shows a talent for the traditional male bastion of commercial real estate and, while valued by her company, she struggles to achieve the same status of her male co-workers. On a parallel track, her quest for traditional romance and love is important but her unique role as a working woman, doing a man's job, makes it tough to find an appropriate suitor.

Eso no puede pasar aquí
" Eso no puede pasar aquí" es una sátira política en la que se describe la América rural y provinciana que surge tras el crac bursátil de 1929. Los personajes y los hechos que se relatan en la novela son como juegos de espejos de los reales en una América en la que Roosevelt pierde las elecciones presidenciales, y un partido totalitario toma el poder en un momento decisivo de la historia del siglo xx, con el auge de los totalitarismos en Europa y el New Deal aún sin terminar de implantarse. La novela cuenta la historia del director de un periódico de Vermont, Doremus Jessup, y de su oposición al candidato a la presidencia Buzz Windrip, quien detrás de un discurso populista y demagógico, sustentado por los supuestos ideales americanos, oculta su verdadera intención de crear una sociedad totalitaria a imagen de las europeas pero con rasgos norteamericanos. El libro incluye un detallado glosario realizado por Amaya Bozal en el que deconstruyendo el juego de espejos podemos apreciar la gran variedad de nombres, hechos y fechas que hacen de esta novela casi una historia subterránea y contracultural de los EEUU. Cuando Sinclair Lewis escribió Eso no puede pasar aquí tenía buenas razones para creer que lo que oía, veía o leía podía acabar como esta fábula fascista en el país de la Libertad.
