Query: This book is not involving

From the jacket cover, Babbit would seem to be a highly provocative novel about the true nature of the American dream. While it is about the American dream, the book seems to run only on one joke: Babbit's rampant materialism. This joke wears thin within the first 30 pages, and the reading the 400 more pages is a tedious task.
