    Great review of one of my top 10 favorite novels👍🏼
    Thank You.
    Another American writer worth reading is Jack London.
    I would strongly recommend 'Martin Eden' and 'The Sea Wolf'
    In your words..... WOW😉

    I just finished the book today, and as always, I look to reviews online. Your review is the way I read it.

    I read this last December and it's one of my all-time favourite books. Each character stood out right away, and Steinbeck writes in a way that it's like seeing a movie. To me, the struggles of "the Okies" is still a lesson for today... the have and the have-nots, those with the least are blamed the most, the ruthlessness of those who have the most, etc. He had a point of view, but more than anything, the story is beautifully immersive. Great review!
