Worth Another Look

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 1999
Review: The Grapes of Wrath is often foisted upon us in high school, when we aren't old or experienced enough to really understand the nuances and depth of the trials and tribulations the characters experience. This book, which has been hailed by serious...

The Inhumanity of Greed

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2000
Review: Who can deny the paramount importance of John Steinbeck in the world of North American literature. With nothing left to re-read upon my bookshelf, I picked up an old favorite, Grapes of Wrath, and did not regret for one moment doing so.

THE Great American Novel: The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 1999
Review: Although many of his works deserve note, including Of Mice and Men and Travels with Charley, I consider The Grapes of Wrath to be the Great American Novel. Steinbeck's tale of the Joad family's travails through the Dust Bowl not only manages to...

Yuck and ZZZ

Date of Review:  Jan 3, 2000
Review: Well, I thought that my dislike of Steinbeck might be a fluke. After being forced to read "The Pearl" and "Of Mice And Men" I thought that maybe I just didn't like his short books. Not so. When I was forced to read "The Grapes of Wrath" I became...

The big bad industrialists screw over the noble agrarians

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2000
Review: This is a terrible book. It's mainly a rant against the industrial revolution, and a smear against the great businessmen and bankers who fueled it. Steinbeck takes the side of midwestern agrarian slobs, "the noble savages", and tries to defend doing...

The Grapes of Wrath: Trampling Out the Vintage

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: The Grapes of Wrath is a novel about humanity and survival in the face of immense degradation and tragedy.
Review: The Plot

The Joad family, already downtrodden sharecroppers, find themselves forced off the land their family had farmed for several generations. They begin driving west to California, lured by advertisements of good jobs and their own...

Grapes of Wrath

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2000
Review: Though it took me along time to chug through Steinbeck's masterpiece novel, I found it to be one of the more invigorating novels I've read in a long time. It had both outstanding character and setting development, as well as a clear social message...

The Arbor Forever Green

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 1999
Review: I dream of writing timeless fiction such as Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath, and come up with potboilers. I find reassurance in the knowledge that Steinbeck received rejections ON THIS SAME NOVEL no less than 29 times before it was finally bought for...

The Grapes of Wrath: This book is one long vine!

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2000
Review: The Grapes of Wrath is one of those books that you'll probably be forced into reading sooner or later in your lifetime. When I first picked up this book, I must have read the first paragraph ten times before I could actually understand it. Despite...

It May Be Long But It's Worth Your Time

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2000
Review: I was required to read "The Grapes of Wrath" in 11th grade English, but given the chance I'd gladly read it again. "The Grapes of Wrath" was an excellent portrayal of life during the Great Depression. Tom Joad and his family travel all over the...
