The Jungle was written by Upton Sinclair in 1904. Before he wrote his most famous novel, he had written five others, but they did not turn out to be much profit. Because of this, he did not have much money so a popular socialist newspaper hired and sent him to a meat-packing plant where he got firsthand experience on the trials and tribulations of the hard-working packers there. This job gave him the inspiration to write The Jungle, which soon became an instant success to the public. They bought it for the wrong reasons though. They were deeply intrigued about the standards of the meatpacking plants and what happened behind closed doors. Sinclair had actually intended the novel to sympathize the working class and to build support for the Socialist movement, which he was an avid member of.
