The road ran, smooth and flawless, precisely fourteen feet wide, the edges trimmed as if by shears, a ribbon of grey concrete, rolled out over the valley by a giant hand. The ground went in long waves, a slow ascent and then a sudden dip; you climbed, and went swiftly over—but you had no fear, for you knew the magic ribbon would be there, clear of obstructions, unmarred by bump or scar, waiting the passage of inflated rubber wheels revolving seven times a second.
Upton Sinclair's sprawling 1927 novel of California's early oil industry, following young Bunny Ross and his oil-tycoon father J. Arnold Ross through a world of gushers, corruption, labor strikes, and the Hollywood dream factory. Inspired by the real-life Teapot Dome scandal of the Harding administration, Oil! weaves together class conflict, radical politics, and the moral education of a wealthy son who comes to question the empire his father built. Later loosely adapted into the film There Will Be Blood.
