FROM THE GRAPES OF WRATH.

The grapes of Wrath Steinbeck journeyed with a group of migrant families who were traveling the route from de devastated plains to California that the novel vividly pictures. The novel won the Pulitzer Prize in 1940. In 1962 Steinbeck won the Nobel Prize in Literature.The migrant families had lost their homes and their live hood, lonely and confused migrant families traveling westward came together each night and former a new society. Thus they changed their social life, changed as in the whole universe only man change; they were not farm men any more, but migrant men. The experience of the migrant families represents a basic human need for a communal society with rules and regulations that determine appropriate behavior.
