Reading Elmer Gantry | Alexandria
Read Elmer Gantry by Sinclair Lewis. Exposing faith as a weapon, Elmer Gantry follows a charismatic fraud who masterfully exploits religion for fame and fortune - yet Lewis' ruthless satire reveals how this cynical conman gradually begins believing his own lies. A searing portrait of moral corruption that eerily mirrors today's influencer culture and megachurch empires.
