The Upton Sinclair Library

The Upton Sinclair Library

The Upton Sinclair Library opens the pages of a writer who went where respectable society would not look. Here are the novels, pamphlets, and fierce moral inquiries of Upton Sinclair, read in full: stories of labor and hunger, wealth and corruption, hope and revolt. Each episode gives voice to the books that dragged hidden machinery into daylight and asked what kind of civilization we mean to build.
