[edit] Good Ideas, But Low Quality
I will make some some copy-edits, but sheesh, it is like a bad high school essay in parts:
-
- There is some criticism toward the novel concerning the seemingly lack of direction and endless description.
-
- Controversy about the small-town portrayal of vicious back-stabbers and hypocrites was also probably a factor in the novel's popularity; in 1920, it was a heralded thought to live in an area like Gopher Prairie--a notion hilariously denounced with Main Street's powerful inculcation.
