ehaase 's review for:
The Grapes of Wrath
by John Steinbeck
The only reason I still have the tattered old retired copy of this book from high school is because it's not in any condition to sell, and I think it's wrong to throw away or burn books. This book was tedious and obnoxious with its in-your-face-holier-than-thou symbolism. The interlude chapters with the damned tortoise, I guess symbolizing man's progress, made me want to puke. I wasted a couple of weeks of the summer before my senior year struggling through this for AP English, two glorious summer weeks that I'll never see again. The only good to come out of it was hilarious catch-phrases such as "You don't know what yer a-doin!", "My dogs is tard", and "Christ on a pony", the latter of which holds a prominent place in my vocabulary to this day.
