During Steinbeck's visit Kerry went to Jon's house and took his parent's Heritage Club copy of The Grapes of Wrath which Steinbeck signed with the wonderful inscription: "For Mr. & Mrs. Quinn from John Steinbeck who isn't angry at anybody". FYI: When Jon and Kerry graduated highschool in 1956 their parents gave them a two week trip to New York City.

2283484The Viking Press 1939. Reprint. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 12th printing. Lacks jacket. Front hinge just starting ink owner stamp on front endpaper. 1939 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author!. 619 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.
