By turns an ardent family saga, scintillating potboiler, and anti-capitalist tirade, \u003ci\u003eOil!\u003c\/i\u003e ranks among the most important critiques of fossil energy ever printed; and while anticipating how fossil fuels have shaped the dilemmas of our present, it also looks toward a greener, more inclusive, and altogether more livable world yet to come. This edition features a contextual introduction by Michael Tondre that illuminates the novel's urgent timeliness in our warming world.\r","brand":"Upton Sinclair, Michael Tondre, Michael Tondre","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44506360807660,"sku":"9780143137443","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44506360840428,"sku":"9781435173194","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9780143137443.jpg?v=1709305040","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/oil-3","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
