Abstract

In line with its history, every country has defects. No matter whether it is a big or a small country, all of them have defects. It is so with the United States of America in which in the early twenties, it has also presented its defects in term provincial mentality attitudes done by its small town people. These provincial mentality attitudes are deeply rooted in their life. They even have become their culture. They are always coloring their life in many things such as in a social relation, business, and also architecture. For some people, these provincial mentality attitudes could be frustrating. But, it is not so for these American small town people, they are so happy and even proud with this culture. That’s why they always
talk and do it in their daily life. However, defects are defects. Defects must be corrected. And in this book, Carol, the main character of Lewis’ Main Street had tried hard to reform those defects into the correct things.
