Delve into the powerful world of social drama with "Damaged Goods: The Great Play ‘Les Avariés’ of Eugene Brieux, Novelized with the Approval of the Author" by Upton Sinclair. This thought-provoking novel sheds light on one of the most controversial topics of its time: the consequences of sexual health negligence and societal ignorance. Adapted from Brieux's landmark play, Sinclair brings the moral and ethical dilemmas faced by individuals and society into sharp focus.


How do we confront the devastating impact of a silent epidemic that no one dares to talk about?


In this daring and emotional narrative, Sinclair tackles issues of shame, medical neglect, and the heavy burden of secrecy. The story follows the lives of individuals grappling with the effects of syphilis, a disease cloaked in stigma, and how their personal struggles reflect the broader societal indifference to public health.


But here’s the real question: Can a society move forward if it refuses to address the very issues that silently tear it apart?


Will the truth, no matter how uncomfortable, finally come to light, or will it remain hidden behind a veil of silence?


"Damaged Goods" is not just a novel; it’s a call to action. Sinclair’s adaptation of Brieux’s play is a bold commentary on the dangers of ignoring uncomfortable truths and the urgent need for change.


Are you ready to confront the harsh realities society hides? Order "Damaged Goods" today and witness a fearless exploration of one of the greatest social issues of the modern age.

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.'
