Beschreibung

Oil! is a novel by Upton Sinclair and told as a third-person narrative, with only the opening pages written in the first person. The book was written in the context of the Harding administration's Teapot Dome Scandal and takes place in Southern California. The novel incorporates elements of romance, family dynamics, and political intrigue. It explores the personal relationships and struggles of the characters, shedding light on the human cost of industrialization and unregulated capitalism.

It is a social and political satire skewering the human foibles of all its characters.

Oil! is considered one of Upton Sinclair's most influential works, along with his other famous novel, "The Jungle."
