About this title

Synopsis

“...and the wild beast rose up within him and screamed, as it had screamed in the Jungle from the dawn of time.”

Jurgis Rudkus and his family fight against all odds to survive in the urban jungle of Chicago, and find themselves unable to prevent their descent into abject poverty and despair.

The Jungle is one of the most powerful novels ever published in the United States. This deeply moving story exposed the horrific conditions many workers lived under in the United States in the early 1900s, and focused the nation's eyes on the struggles immigrants went through to have a part of the American Dream.

Through its detailed descriptions of the meat industry based on the author's real experience, The Jungle led to the creation of the Food and Drug Administration.
