Extra marks for depth of knowledge if anyone knows what the theme of novel #4 is......

OK so you sow the teeth then you get the harvest. Gotta check the original metaphor...
Jungle is early, the nineteen oughties. A time as possessed by greed as the nineteen eighties.
The other 3 are from the Lanny Budd series of 11 novels which follow world events at a slight distance.
Sinclair's world includes both lots of politics, economic Socialism and Spiritualism.
And so.....
O Shepherd Speak, theme is the wish to get advice from the deceased FDR. I think they get it.
