The Metropolis - (Mint Editions (Literary Fiction)) by Upton Sinclair (Paperback)

The Metropolis is a gripping tale of high drama and meticulous prose that delves into the duality of New York City's elite in 1907.

This masterfully crafted novel exposes the cruelty of the rich, who prey on the poor and working class with their greed and selfishness.

Through vivid descriptions of opulent parties, expensive cars, and gluttonous meals, Upton Sinclair paints a picture of a society where the divide between the haves and have-nots is stark and unjust.

But Allan, the protagonist, refuses to turn a blind eye to the suffering and launches a court case to help lessen the blight of the poor.

As he navigates the treacherous waters of New York's elite society, Allan must be careful and clever to survive the shallow values and cruel intentions of the wealthy.

With its compelling message, plot twists, and backstabbing, The Metropolis is both an entertaining and enlightening read that will leave you questioning the true cost of luxury and justice.
