Wide Is the Gate

From the Pulitzer Prize–winning saga, an American faces the horrors of Nazi Germany and steps into the fire of the Spanish Civil War in service to his country. Lanny Budd's dedication to social justice has placed a strain on his marriage to his heiress wife, Irma, but as he moves through the 1930s, the international art dealer is unable to turn a blind eye to what is happening in Europe. As the Nazi Party solidifies its power in Germany, Lanny recognizes an opportunity to make a difference when his arms dealer father strikes a business agreement with Hermann Göring, Adolf Hitler's second-in-command. Robbie Budd's alliance with the Luftwaffe commander and Lanny's art world reputation enable the younger Budd to move easily among the Nazi high command and gather valuable information for those who are dedicated to the destruction of Nazism and Fascism. It is a dangerous game that Lanny is playing, and it will carry him from Germany to Spain on a life-and-death mission on the eve of the Spanish Civil War. Wide Is the Gate continues New York Times–bestselling author Upton Sinclair's literary journey through the tumult of the twentieth century. Praise for the Lanny Budd Novels "Remarkably shrewd and often prescient." —The New York Times "Few works of fiction are more fun to read; fewer still make history half as clear, or as human." —Time "When people ask me what has happened in my long lifetime, I do not refer them to the newspaper files and to the authorities, but to [Sinclair's] novels." —George Bernard Shaw "The completest and most faithful portrait of that period that has been done or will likely be done." —H. G. Wells
