J_BlueFlower (j_from_denmark) | 387 comments These days some older alternative history and scifi books are surfacing. 1984 is currently the number 3 to selling in Amazon.com. That is pretty impressive given that it is so old that it is public domain.

Number 20 on the Amazon bestsellers list is Sinclair Lewis: It Can't Happen Here
(Amazon list : https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers...)

I had heard about this book a long time ago as a far out alternative history about a nationalist/fascist USA.

What I did not realize is that the author Sinclair Lewis is the same as on the 1001-list, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930.

It Can't Happen Here is not a 1001-list book. My personal goal is to read a book by all Nobel Prize receivers. For Sinclair Lewis I am stating with It Can't Happen Here.

Project Gutenberg has it for free download. A nice formatted free epub here:
