Copertina di Sinclair Lewis: Tuhlaajavanhemmat (ePUB)

Kun Frederick William Cornplow saa kuulla poikansa joutuneen sairaalaan, hän lähtee vähin äänin kertomatta vaimolleen Hazelille tai tytär Saralle. Howardille ei onneksi ole sattunut mitään vakavaa: poju on vain joutunut pieneen vaunuonnettomuuteen lakkoon osallistuessaan mutta selvinnyt vähin naarmuin. Isästä pojan ja tämän ylioppilaskavereiden touhut ovat päättömiä: miksi kukaan haluaisi laukoa ääneen mielipiteitään Rooseveltista tai Venäjästä, saati backgammonista? Isä itse kokee olevansa epäpoliittinen: hän ei mieti työväkeä, hän ainoastaan käyttää sitä. Howardin ja isän ajatukset ovat törmäyskurssilla pahemman kerran, eikä ristiriita tunnu heltiävän vanhempien ja lasten välillä.Hemmotellun opiskelijapoika Howardin kommunismiflirttailu ärsyttää keskiluokkaisia vanhempia 1930-luvun Yhdysvaltoihin sijoittuvassa satiirisen pisteliäässä romaanissa, jonka pilkka osuu useampiin poliittisiin suuntiin. Synkeänhauska teos jäi Sinclair Lewisin viimeiseksi.
