About this audiobook
Upton Sinclair's The Jungle is a powerful and harrowing exposé of the American meatpacking industry at the turn of the 20th century. Following the journey of Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant who comes to Chicago seeking a better life, the novel unveils the brutal realities of exploitation, corruption, and unsanitary conditions that workers faced.
As Jurgis navigates the harsh environment of the stockyards and the crushing poverty of urban life, Sinclair's gripping narrative sheds light on the struggles of the working class and the urgent need for social reform. The Jungle remains a landmark in American literature and a pivotal work in the history of labor rights and food safety regulations.
