Answer 1

I don't know, I've never read the story.

Answer 2

The Great Depression, which lasted throughout the 1930s in the United States, affected many people. Modernist writer John Steinbeck took an interest in the physical and emotional toll the Depression took on families, some of whom were forced to leave their farms and attempt to find other sources of income.

As a result, Steinbeck wrote the iconic novel The Grapes of Wrath, which not only speaks to the semifictional struggles of a single family but also reveals the problems faced by an entire subset of the U.S. population.

In this lesson, you'll explore the effects of the Great Depression through the eyes of the people who experienced it. You'll listen to stories about growing up during the Depression, and you'll read excerpts from The Grapes of Wrath, focusing on how Steinbeck uses language to convey his ideas
