Publisher's Summary:
'The Jungle' by Upton Sinclair is a groundbreaking novel that exposes the harsh realities of the American meatpacking industry in the early 20th century. Set in Chicago, the story follows Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant who comes to America with his family seeking a better life but instead encounters exploitation, poverty, and despair. Through Jurgis' experiences working in meatpacking plants and his struggles to provide for his family, Sinclair vividly portrays the deplorable working conditions, rampant corruption, and social injustices prevalent in industrial America. The novel sheds light on issues such as workers' rights, immigrant exploitation, and the corrupt nexus between big business and politics. 'The Jungle' remains a powerful indictment of capitalism and a call to action for social reform.
