Chicago Slaughterhouses

Chicago Slaughterhouses is one of the striking works that reveal the situation of the working classes in the USA from the time it was written until today. The huge meat industry in Chicago is constantly looking for new workers to replace the workers it used, threw aside and condemned to misery in a short time, and those who came from all over the world, deceived by the American dream, are being ground between the gears of this cruel wheel. Those who gather around these factories with the dream of wealth and freedom will encounter a hell in which there is no job or life security, where animals for slaughter enter from one end and unorganized workers ready to be sacrificed from the other end. Upton Sinclair's testimonies in the slaughterhouse area, where he worked incognito to write his novel, shed light on the capitalist understanding of production and consumption, which, as then and today, cares neither about the health of consumers nor the welfare of employees. A shocking novel that draws its power from the cruelty of reality.
