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.
