a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
"“I had fallen through a trapdoor of depression,”
The sentence that best explains the significance of the novel's title,<em> The Grapes of Wrath</em>, is D. Steinbeck describes the migrants' anger as "fermenting".
<em>The Grapes of Wrath </em>(1939) tells the story of the Joads, a poor family of farmers that leave their home in Oklahoma in search for a better life. However, when they reach California, the Joads only encounter starvation and workers that are constantly exploited. The title of the novel is of great relevance since <u>Steinbeck intends to underline the fact that the family's anger ripens very quickly due to the oppression they suffer. </u>Furthermore,<u> by using that title, the writer tries to remark that the family's feelings of frustation are ready to be harvested </u>as the grapes are by the end of the novel. Therefore, the title refers to the Joads' growing anger and the need for revenge against the migrants' oppressors.
