Book: The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck

Classic unabridged novel. Winner of the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize. This is a Hardback copy from 1967 with deckled pages. No dust cover but otherwise in excellent vintage condition. No marks, no dog-ears, no torn pages. The spine is in great shape, the cover shows very little sign of wear. As with all of my listings, the photos here are of the actual item. "First published in 1939, this epic tale tells the story of the Joads—driven from their Oklahoma homestead by the Dust Bowl and repossession of their farm by the bank. They are forced to pack their lives into a jalopy and head to California. Out of their trials and repeated collisions against the hard realities of a country divided into Haves and Have-Nots evolves a drama that is majestic yet plainspoken, tragic, and stirring in its presentation of human dignity. A portrait of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless, of one man’s fierce reaction to injustice, and of one woman’s stoical strength, the novel captures the horrors of the Great Depression and probes into the nature of inequality and injustice in America." Continues to be relevant in this era and the prose is gorgeous. If you've never had the chance to read it, at least check it out at the library. It's a hell of a book.
