Description: The Grapes of Wrath Author: John Steinbeck Title: The Grapes of Wrath Description: Viking Press, 1939. First edition, first printing. Near Fine condition. Original unclipped first state dust jacket in Good condition. Overall a clean and attractive example. "The Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck captures the economic and social hardships faced during the Great Depression, particularly through the plight of the Dust Bowl migrants. The book was both a critical and popular success, winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1940 and later contributing to Steinbeck’s Nobel Prize in Literature in 1962.Collectors value the first edition not only for its place in American literature but also because the novel became a symbol of resilience and social justice, shaping the public’s awareness of migrant workers' struggles. The original dust jacket is especially prized because it features iconic artwork by Elmer Hader, with strong colors and style reflective of the period. Copies with the jacket in good condition are scarce, given the paper’s fragility and the novel’s wide readership. Seller ID: 311796 This listing was created by Bibliopolis.
