From the cover blurb:
When this novel was first published in 1939, it took Britain and America by storm.
It is the story of the great migration of thousands of homeless families from the dust-bowl of Oklahoma to California. It traces the fortunes of the Joad family who, lured by the promise of unlimited work, pile their belongings onto a dilapidated truck and head for the 'Golden West', the land of plenty - only to find their hopes shattered as they encounter bitter poverty and oppression.
