What I find so fascinating and enlightening about the " novel " is its historical setting. Its presentation of the conditions of those times and how we dealt with them. That the stockyards are the focal point, only adds to its relatedness, to some of us, whose parents came out of that muck and mire !! It is not a book that I read occasionally, but I do reread it, from time to time !!
I am glad I didn't waste your time, in recommending it !!
