In Sinclair Lewis's "Dodsworth," there is a whimsical portrayal of a retired general known for his eccentricity. He has a deep passion for motorcycles, which leads him to ride a dilapidated bike with carefree abandon. The image is one of joyful recklessness, with his mustache and sense of dignity swept away in the wind as he speeds along the roads. His adventurous spirit comes with a downside, as he inadvertently causes chaos by running over geese and, occasionally, curates. The general's antics culminate in a series of hefty bills that reflect the humorous yet chaotic life he leads in his retirement, showcasing both his charm and his dotty nature.
