1939rif. 53753New York: The Viking Press 1939. First printing. Near fine. First edition of the Pulitzer and National Book Award-winning novel that made Steinbeck a household name. GRAPES OF WRATH has been generations of students' introduction to the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. Steinbeck's extensive use of symbolism and Biblical motifs also makes it an excellent exercise in literary criticism for both high schoolers and hardcore academics all pulled together with exceptionally lyrical prose. GRAPES OF WRATH was an immediate hit and stayed atop bestseller lists for the majority of 1939. But it was not always beloved: the novel was a lighting rod for Steinbeck both professionally and personally. His portrayal of the difficult lives of migrant workers and the corruption of the agriculture business earned him "constant vilification" from powerful farmers' groups and the book was banned and even occasionally burned in a variety of communities Demott. In his diaries Steinbeck lamented how the novel's popularity "got really out of hand became a public hysteria" leading to the idea that he was himself "public domain" Demott. This first edition with its hyperbolic but prescient dust jacket editorial copy "Perhaps GRAPES OF WRATH is the greatest modern American novel. the greatest single creative work this country has ever produced" captures the tipping point of Steinbeck's career. 8'' x 5.25''. Original tan buckram binding with brown titles and line art. Original unclipped $2.75 color pictorial dust jacket illustrated by Elmer Hader. Yellow topstain. Endpapers with illustration of the Battle Hymn of the Republic in yellow and orange. 620 pages. Jacket with minor edgewear one tiny chip to spine foot.
