We read it for book club. I liked it because it was interesting. I disliked it because it made me aware of the way things were in America at that time. Who knows? Maybe they are still the same

Upton Sinclair's novel The Jungle is a timeless capturing of the corrupted American dream and the pitfalls of unregulated capitalism and trusts. While Sinclair's original purpose was to add steam to the Socialist revolution he saw just around the corner in American society, it more effectively performed as a platform for reform in many of Chicago's meat industries, which many were not far from Sinclair's graphic descriptions. More or less documenting a dark part of America's and over all society's shortcomings during this period, Upton Sinclair paints a vivid description from a Socialistic writer in the early 20th century that should always be treated as an American classic.

I really wanted to read The Jungle book,but never recieved it. So there is my review. It is thought to be a very informative book about working conditions at the turn of the century,corperate greed and political pay offs, could be a reflection of todays times, as I said I never received the book so that is all I can say.

This book was purchased for my oldest daughter who is a college freshman. She learned of it in her history class & thought it would be interesting to read so she asked me to go to ebay & look for it for her. I did & purchased it immediately as it had a buy now button.
