Review of The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck

 

       Set during the Dust Bowl, The Grapes of Wrath tells the sad and desperate story of the Joad family as they lose their farm in Oklahoma and pack up all their belongings in search of a better life in California.  Life is no better once they get there.

       A heartbreaking story of an American family that doesn't heven have enough money to buy food, the Grapes of Wrath is still a story of the strength of the human spirit.  A deeply moving story and a must read.

       ARE YOU KIDDING ME? This book sucked eggs. I couldn't read it without falling asleep. Steinbeck tries so hard to make his books all symbolic and religious. They're so boring! How could anyone like it? And, BTW, we get that Jim Casy=Jesus Christ. Stop rubbing it in our faces.
