With the same outraged sensibility that fueled his muckraking exposé The Jungle, Sinclair turns a gimlet eye upon the jaded lifestyles of New York City’s high society in this 1907 novel. Freshly arrived from Mississippi, young lawyer Allan Montague is swept up in a profligate atmosphere of party-going and excess that soon threatens to destroy him.
