We have more books available by this author!. 473 1 pp. 8vo. Set during the Great Depression it traces the migration of an Oklahoma Dust Bowl family to California and their subsequent hardships as migrant farm workers. It won a Pulitzer Prize in 1940. The work did much to publicize the injustices of migrant labor. The narrative interrupted by prose-poem interludes chronicles the struggles of the Joad family's life on a failing Oklahoma farm their difficult journey to California and their disillusionment once they arrive there and fall prey to a parasitic economic system. The insularity of the Joads--Ma's obsession with family togetherness son Tom's self-centeredness and daughter Rose of Sharon's materialism--ultimately gives way to a sense of universal community.
