The graphic novel adaptation vividly portrays the struggles of immigrants in Chicago's meatpacking industry during the early 1900s. It highlights the harsh realities and exploitation they faced, echoing the themes of Upton Sinclair's original work, which spurred significant social reform, including the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. Kristina Gehrmann's illustrations breathe new life into this classic, making it accessible for contemporary readers while addressing ongoing concerns about labor and food safety.
