The JungleAuthor :
Paperback
Published : Tuesday 2 July 2019
Description
A compelling graphic novel adaptation of Upton Sinclairs seminal protest novel that brings to life the harsh conditions and exploited existences of immigrants in Chicagos meatpacking industry in the early twentieth century.
Long acclaimed around the world, Upton Sinclairs 1906 muckraking novel The Jungle remains a powerful book even today. Not many works of literature can boast that their publication brought about actual social and labor change, but thats just what The Jungle did, as it led to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. In todays society, where labor and safety of the food we eat remain key concerns for all, Sinclairs shocking story still resonates. Bringing new life and energy to this classic work, adapter and illustrator Kristina Gehrmann takes Sinclairs prose and transforms it through pen and ink, allowing you to discover (or rediscover) this book and see it from a whole new perspective.
