“The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair was first published in 1906. Through this novel the author has depicted the severely harsh conditions in the lives of immigrants in Chicago, the United States, and how they were exploited in most of the big industrialized cities.
Sinclair exposed several health violations and unsanitary practices in the meat packaging industry in the United States in the early 20th century. This exposure was taken very seriously by the readers. To write about this topic, Sinclair had done a lot of investigation for a socialist newspaper.
