Main Street
Sinclair Lewis’s Main Street, published in 1920, was not expected to be a commercial success. Lewis felt it would sell
10,000 copies, and his publisher predicted a run of 20,000 would be adequate. In the first six months of 1921, it sold
180,000 copies.
The novel is set in Gopher Prairie, roughly based on Sauk Centre, Minnesota, Lewis’s hometown. In his article from the
Boston Globe, “Dropping by Main Street 60 Years Later,” Charles E. Claffey writes: Main Street at first evoked wrath in
this town and its environs. In nearby Alexandria it was banned; the Sauk Centre Herald kept editorial silence for five
months before noting in its edition of March 13, 1921: “A perusal of the book makes it possible for one to picture in his
mind’s eyes local characters having been injected bodily into the story.”
Sinclair Lewis became persona non grata in Sauk Centre for many years, but gradually, the town forgave him, and he
remains a cottage industry. Lewis, however, never really came to terms with the town of his youth. After he died in Rome,
his brother Dr. Claude Lewis decided to use Lewis’s funeral urn as a memorial rather than bury it in the ground. As he
opened the urn, a gust of wind sent the ashes flying. According to town lore Charles Corrigan, the mortician, commented,
“Well, Lewis got away from this town after all.”
