Chapter 29 of The Grapes of Wrath is an "inner" chapter and, therefore, short and lyrical in style. It is also a Biblical-styled chapter, as it depicts the Great Flood that is used as counterpoint to the Dust Bowl chapters earlier. Steinback makes use of pathetic fallacy (weather to depict emotional tone) as the apocalyptic weather is a kind of purgation--an excessive baptism that brings death across the land.
The novel called <em>"The Grapes of Wrath"</em> is a story written by John Steinbeck.
This story is about religion, politics. So the story develops a lyrical style in which you can see some biblican teachings. In this story is also mantioned the sin and purgation so religion is an important topic.
