It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis is a cautionary tale about the fragility of democracy, an alarming, eerily timeless look at how fascism could take hold in America. Written during the Great Depression when America was largely oblivious to Hitler's aggression, it juxtaposes sharp political satire with the chillingly realistic rise of a President who becomes a dictator to "save the nation." It Can't Happen Here remains uniquely important, a shockingly prescient novel that's as fresh and contemporary as today's news.
