A review by juller
The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck

4.0

Spurred by a reading challenge in which I am participating, I finally read The Grapes of Wrath. It is a very hertbreaking time and story. My favorite character was Ma Joad. She was a strong woman whose family was important to her. She did her best to take care of them and keep them together. Another great aspect of the story was how the Joads were kind and humane in spite of the dehumanizing conditions and how they were treated as something less than workhorses by some of the other people.
