"Steinbeck's Pulitzer Prize-winning epic of the Great Depression chronicles the Dust Bowl migration of the 1930s and tells the story of one Oklahoma farm family the Joads-driven from their homestead and forced to travel west to the promised land of California. Out of their trials and their repeated collisions against the hard realities of an America divided into Haves and Have-Nots evolves a drama that is intensely human yet majestic in its scale and moral vision elemental yet plainspoken tragic but ultimately stirring in its human dignity. A portrait of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless of one man's fierce reaction to injustice and of one woman's stoical strength the novel captures the horrors of the Great Depression and probes into the very nature of equality and justice in America." .

Steinbeck's classic account of the Dust Bowl and Depression era struggle of the Joad family The Grapes of Wrath is a quintessential American classic. It would win both the National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize; and the Nobel Prize committee would refer to it as Steinbeck's "epic chronicle" upon giving him the award in 1962. The book was the best-selling novel of 1939 and became instantly controversial upon its release for its depiction of farmers and worker rights. Of course The Grapes of Wrath was also adapted into the classic 1940 film directed by John Ford and starring Henry Fonda which was one of the first films selected by The Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.

"The Grapes of Wrath is the kind of art thats poured out of a crucible in which are mingled pity and indignation. Its power and importance do not lie in its political insight but in its intense humanity. It is the American novel of the season probably the year possibly the decade" Clifton Fadiman. It is the basis for the 1940 John Ford directed film bearing the same name starring Henry Fonda. It is widely considered as one of the greatest American films of all time. In 1989 this film was one of the first 25 films to be selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally historically or aesthetically significant."
