What does Sinclair mean by this quote? What was his purpose for writing this novel? 3.What are three characteristics of Sinclair’s writing style? 4.In the style of Upton Sinclair, write 4-6 sentences describing an issue that you think must be addressed in today’s society. Ideas may include sweatshop labor or climate change, but it is recommended that you come up with your own creative issue.
