The Jungle
Kitap hakkında
What if the price of your daily bread was human suffering?
Upton Sinclair's groundbreaking novel, The Jungle (1906), shook America to its core with its brutal portrayal of immigrant life and the horrors of Chicago's meatpacking industry.
The story follows Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant who comes to America dreaming of freedom and prosperity. Instead, he and his family are thrust into a world of relentless labor, exploitation, corruption, and despair. With unflinching realism, Sinclair exposes not only the unsanitary and dangerous practices of the industry but also the crushing weight of poverty and inequality on working-class families.
Why this novel matters:
Sparked public outrage that led to major reforms in food safety laws.
A landmark of American social and political literature.
A timeless reminder of the struggles of laborers, immigrants, and the poor.
More than a novel, The Jungle is a call to justice—an unflinching testament to the resilience of the human spirit amid overwhelming adversity.
