Skáldsögur

"Jimmie Higgins" by Upton Sinclair is a poignant exploration of working-class struggles and idealism during World War I. The story follows Jimmie, a spirited Socialist and labor activist, as he navigates the challenges of poverty, patriotism, and political disillusionment. Initially fervently anti-war, Jimmie’s convictions are tested when he joins the military, exposing him to the harsh realities of conflict and propaganda. Sinclair delves into themes of class struggle, loyalty, and the cost of ideological compromise. Through Jimmie’s journey, the novel critiques the exploitation of workers and the moral contradictions of war. A blend of social commentary and personal drama, it captures the tension between individual ideals and societal pressures in a rapidly changing world.
