Best Answer

The Jungle was written in 1906 by Upton Sinclair. It contrasts the corruption of the meat-packing industry with the appalling conditions and day-to-day hopelessness the "lower classes" work and live in. Upon publication, (after 5 rejections) the Jungle became an instant best seller and has never gone out of print.
