The Pain of the Okies Exposed in The Grapes of Wrath

Pain exposed to angry grapes In the 1930's, sandstorms were ecological and human disasters in the Great Plains in the United States of America. The afflicted areas are Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Colorado. The catastrophic treatment of land and years of drought caused this catastrophe (Jones "history"). Meanwhile, "Okies" - the names of immigrants migrating from Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Southwest, North Plains to somewhere in California - encountered many difficulties.

John Steinbeck's "Grapes of Wrath" is a novel that depicts the migration of Okies to California, historically known as The Dustbowl. In this novel Steinbeck tries to show the tension between Okies and Californians. This indication can be closely compared with the tension between today's American born citizen and immigrants. Great literary works are eternal in the courses they teach and the disputes they draw. As in the case of most land and immigrant tension, the tension between Okies and California became intense. Okies want only two things: food and land. "... ... The new barbarian wants only one thing - land and food: for them, the two are one." "Barbarian" just moved to California to escape Oklahoma And then, Dangerous situations around dusty countries; they are trying to create a better life for their families.

Perhaps Steinbeck's most popular and true novel, angry grape, exposes the suffering of 'Oki' immigrants. By traveling from one scene to another scene through a short and descriptive passage he will constantly communicate the urgent atmosphere. The novel is a very religious symbol and Cathy feels pain with Tom's crime and later dies "Fathers forgive them ... ..." and all the family members meet with their father and son, like Moses In the wooden box floating in the river, the name "rose of the salon" comes from Solomon's song ... and the list continues. This book is a masterpiece as a portrait of families destroyed by nature, mechanization, greed and change of times, and sometimes as sentimental but powerful prosecution for our capitalist economy.
