Literary Paper of The Grapes of Wrath by Steinbeck
Steinbeck wrote many wonderful books but a great classic is one titled The
Grapes of Wrath. This is a story of a family called the Joads, and a tale of a
courageous family who sought security and family unity.
In my paper I will examine the different ways the Joads tried to keep
united whether just within their immediate family or eventually with all the
others who shared the same struggles and sufferings.
Steinbeck's dialogue and description's of the dusty roads, the men
squatting in the dirt drawing pictures while making major decisions, the way in
which they traveled all puts you right into the middle of the family. One
becomes aware and wants to be a part of there unity and their long for security.
Steinbeck's use of the characters dialect is astoundingly excellent and
unmistakenly realistic of the Joad's culture. Without this dialogue, it would
not be as intense and vivid.
