Steinbeck uses parallelism in the Grapes of Wrath because he wanted to emphasize the fact that the people were not happy when the new migrant moves into their neighborhood. He also shows how the migrants form close bonds with each other due to their similar struggles and life experiences. Parallelism is the balance between two or more similar words or phrases. By using parallelism, the author improves his writing style and readability of his novel. Parallel construction also improves the reader's understanding of the story.

Parallel structure or parallelism means repeating the grammatical form within the sentence. Repetitive grammatical elements in the sentence are similar or identical in structure, sound, meter or meaning. This technique contributes to the balance and effectiveness of written work, affecting readability and makes texts easier to process.

For that purpose, John Steinbeck used parallelism to emphasize the injustice that occurred to migrants during the Great Depression. He wanted readers to experience the lives of migrants. In order to achieve this, he created tones of passion, sorrow, anger and despair through his writing. In order to develop his tones and present it to readers in a more acceptable and understandable way, he used paralelism.

The phrase “A glooming peace this morning with it brings. The sun for sorrow will not show his head. ” it is spoken by the prince at the end of "Romeu e J *", after all the deaths caused directly or indirectly, by the enmity of the Capuleto and Monteschio families.

After the death of the two young people, the families showed how the enmity between them was malefic and ended up affecting the lives of those who just wanted to love, they then decide to end this enmity and make peace, in the name of those who are gone. The prince then affirms that that morning, it sealed peace between the families, but it was a dark, sad and melancholy peace, since it was necessary for a tragedy to happen for it to be sealed. This peace was so sad, that not even the sun celebrated it, but it hid, leaving the cold climate and showing the sadness in the hearts of the characters.
