A three-act drama about political corruption in early–twentieth century New York, from the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Jungle.
First published in 1912, Upton Sinclair’s The Machine tells the story of political grafting in New York City. The corrupt politicians of the Tammany Hall syndicate are using their business connections for their own financial gain, while some of the city’s most vulnerable are drawn into a human trafficking ring. But a journalist, a lawyer, and an activist are eager to go up against the broken system and take it down . . .
