the true Great American Novel about the American Dream. it’s pointless! the system is set up to fail!
if you were struggling to see how the rich get richer while the poor get poorer, Steinbeck has helpfully explained it here. pleasantly surprised to see the discussion on union busting and the practice of manufactured scarcity to drive profits up in the meat of a classic road trip novel.
yes to workers rights! this book is scarily still relevant.
