Homework#9 Tuesday Nice to eat with you communion

 In Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" The evening meal for the family is the only time that the family gets to be together because it is the small fraction of time when none of the family are at work. The family bought a house UNWITTINGLY knowing about the interest they had to pay until later so this put them into a panic. The main character, Jorgis was LUGUBRIOUS because every member of the family had to work including his new wife, and oldest child who was not quite sixteen so they had to fake his age. It was here at their “communion that they could relax and tell the gruesome stories in what they first thought were HYPERBOLES of the places they worked as well as learn from one of their fellow Lithuanian neighbor the history of their house and the ways of Packingtown and the US. The family could enjoy each other’s company and often this communion would keep the family SANGUINE about their situation as it continued to worsen.
