Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.
``Practically alone among the American writers of his generation,Sinclair] put to the American public the fundamental questions raised by capitalism in such a way that they could not escape them.`` --Edmund Wilson When it was first published in 1906, The Jungle exposed the inhumane conditions of Chicago's stockyards and the laborer's struggle against industry and ``wage slavery.`` It was an immediate bestseller and led to new regulations that forever changed workers' rights and the meatpacking industry. A direct descendant of Dickens's Hard Times , it remains the most influential workingman's novel in American literature.
