"Grapes of Wrath", is a novel written by John Steinbeck and it was published in 1939. This is the best-known and most popular story written by the author and it won a Pulitzer Prize in 1940. "Grapes of Wrath" tells the story of a family from the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma who hit by the Great Depression, are forced to leave their homes to seek a better future in California. Along the way, this family faces many adventures and also many hardships and most importantly, they face the effects of poverty and lack of opportunity that has affected an entire country. One of the main purposes of Steinbeck while writing "Grapes of Wrath", aside from showing the obvious devastation called by the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression, especially in Oklahoma, was to criticize the way that the lands had been used to generate profit, instead of thinking about policies to keep the people fed. In order for him to be able to portray the struggles faced in "Grapes of Wrath", one thing that Steinbeck did was visit migrants camps and share time in the small populations and establishments created by migrants in tents. There, he came face to face with the horrors being lived by these people and that was the fodder he used to write this great novel.
(of several people or things) come together from different directions so as eventually to meet Update: I read it. This is like a review of the year and these were months ago. I cant really remember... I know that Julian learned not to be proud and that he truly did love his mother despite what he acted out in the beginning of the story. I also know that Dade learned to be his own person and allow the woman free. I really don't see how they relate though...<span>Update 2: Is EVERYONE happy now? I got the answer (cough cough no thanks to any of you...) At the end, both Dade and Julian both feel very alone in the world, but in very different ways. Julian feels alone physically, because his mother has just died and he is alone without her. Julian also feels alone mentally. He feels superior to others, and this sets him apart from the rest. Dade, on the other hand feels alone because he realizes he won't ever be able to understand everyone around him, and they won't be able to understand him and this puts a barrier between him and everyone else.</span>
