The Grapes
of Wrath takes place during the Dust Bowl era of the 1930's. I choose this book
because I've always been interested in this era and in classic books such as
this. The Dust Bowl era was a time of harsh sun and scarce crops, and where
getting food for the common man was difficult. The protagonist, Tom Joad is struggling through this time with
his family and a preacher, to somehow get to California. This book shows
struggle and perseverance among the American people.
