Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle tells the story of Jurgis Rudkus, an immigrant drawn to America by the promise of prosperity. In Chicago’s stockyards, he and his family are crushed by grueling labor, dangerous workplaces, and relentless economic exploitation. As they lose their savings, health, and loved ones, the novel reveals the hidden horrors of the meatpacking industry and the broader injustices of early-20th-century capitalism. Broken by hardship, Jurgis eventually encounters socialist ideas, which offer him a sense of purpose and a vision for systemic change.
