"Kadotuksen kansa: Kuvaus Lontoon East Endistä" by Jack London is a book published in 1903. London ventures into the Whitechapel district of London's East End, living among the desperately poor for several weeks. Sleeping in workhouses, on streets, and lodging with impoverished families, he documents the harsh realities of working-class life in one of the city's most deprived areas. This first-hand account of urban poverty would later inspire George Orwell's own investigations into London's underclass. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
