About This Novel
I don't know whether it is heaven or hell, but there is our hope, and we must live... This is a touching legendary story. A sandstorm destroyed the Joad family's land and forced them to leave their home. They assembled a trailer out of scrap metal, piled all their belongings on it, and headed west along Route 66 to the legendary paradise of grape-filled mountains-California. During this long journey of three thousand kilometers, they experienced many incredible things. Some things are cruel and painful, but there are also some encounters that touch them so much that they regain their confidence in living.

The novel is quite good and the plot is vivid, but the overall feeling is a bit like when people are unlucky, if you are really unlucky all the time, God will not favor you. Although this family has encountered some good things, most of them are unlucky. The family dies, leaves, and breaks up. There are many families like this There are many, and in addition to cultural differences in the world, some things happen in every country. The ancestors of the male protagonist's family drove away the indigenous people and settled on their own. As a result, he was kicked out by the bank. He left his hometown and became a lowly person. He maintained his life by doing part-time work for others in other places. In the end, he lived a life of poverty. I don't know what will happen. There is also a family that is not a fuel-efficient person, and no one has a safe life. It would be strange if they are not unlucky. Also, given the era and background of the book, I don't know who to blame. It is understandable from the perspective of others.
A good book that deeply reflects the alienation of capital from people
After the torrent of capital uprooted people from the land, they carried them forward. The screams of the drowning people in the water echoed in the depths of the times.
