The Pulitzer Prize-winning epic of the Great Depression, a book
that galvanized—and sometimes outraged—millions of readers.
First published in 1939, Steinbeck’s Pulitzer Prize-winning epic
of the Great Depression chronicles the Dust Bowl migration of
the 1930s and tells the story of one Oklahoma farm family, the
Joads—driven from their homestead and forced to travel west to
the promised land of California. A portrait of the conflict
between the powerful and the powerless, of one man’s fierce
reaction to injustice, and of one woman’s stoical strength, the
novel captures the horrors of the Great Depression and probes
into the very nature of equality and justice in America.
Characters: 28. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre:
Classic/Fiction.
