John Steinbeck's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, ""The Grapes of Wrath"", was published in 1939. Set during the Great Depression, the novel follows failed farmer Tom Joad and his family as they head from Oklahoma's Dust Bowl to the promised land of the West. ""Bloom's Modern Critical Interpretations"" presents the reader with a collection of important critical essays that set the scene for an amplified study of this American classic. This fully updated resource also contains supplementary introductions, a chronology, background information on the contributors, and a bibliography, and is an excellent choice for students working on thematic or compare-and-contrast papers.
