Oil!

In the context of the Teapot-Dome Scandal, one of the biggest financial scandals in US history, by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Upton Sinclair This small slice of Southern California marks the beginning of the "American century."  
 
While the contradictions of the capitalist wheel that grows and feeds on bribery, corruption, media manipulation and irregularity are satirized with all its harshness, the parade of landowners, sect leaders, oil barons, senators and Hollywood stars that turn this wheel is dizzying and provocative. It takes you on a fascinating political adventure.
 
Oil!, which was adapted to the cinema in 2008 under the name There Will Be Blood, won the admiration of the audience, and is woven with detailed depictions of early America, where the mass consumption policy and greed began to become the center of life while the foundations of the oil industry were being laid. A novel that reveals the corruption hidden behind the fascinating atmosphere of the age, the class contradictions and how evil people can become.
