- Inhalt:
- Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant trying to make ends meet in Chicago. The book begins with his and Ona's wedding feast. He and his family live near the stockyards and meatpacking district, where many immigrants work who do not know much English. He takes a job at Brown's slaughterhouse.
- Upton Sinclair was an American author and pioneer of investigative journalism who produced nearly 100 books and other works across a number of genres. He is best known for his classic muckraking novel, The Jungle, which exposed conditions in the U.S. Meat packing industry, causing a public uproar that contributed in part to the passage a few months later of the Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act.
