Excerpt from Prince Hagen: A Phantasy In this particular case, I think it was the first named of them and the last; it was a very warm day, and a hammock is a treacher ous contrivance; the streamlet tinkled on, and the wind swayed the pine-trees gently. I sat for some time much entertained with the thoughts that teemed in my brain, and not altogether unaware that it was a fine emotion, and one that people would justly admire; then, entirely without realising it, and still imagining that I was hard at work, I began to nod. It was too late for any resistance then; the demons had it all their own way, and must have laughed a great deal; in a few minutes more I was fast asleep.

Upton Sinclair

Upton Sinclair Jr. (1878-1968) was an American journalist and novelist who wrote nearly one hundred books. Among his famous writings are his classic muckraking novel, The Jungle, which exposed the brutal conditions faced by immigrant workers in early twentieth-century America.

It garnered public attention, however, for portraying the brutal, unsanitary conditions of the meat packing industry in the United States. Speaking about The Jungle, Sinclair famously stated, 'I aimed at the public's heart, and by accident I hit it in the stomach.'
