Title: Are we reading the same book?
Review: Okay, I studied this book in college. Yes, the class had to pick it apart it over a school quarter. I have been over it and over it and read it forward and backwards, and I really don't see the appeal. (I grew up on the prairie, so don't go there.) All I can see is a nagging, terrified and unintelligent (to put it kindly) wife driving her husband to the grave. If that is what passes for good literature, it is lost on me. I'll go back to reading Dickens and Hemingway. Sorry, but I have read better books everywhere I have gone. This is a deeply depressing and dreary story. That's about all I can say. I just can't like it, no matter how hard I try. Maybe it is for Steinbeck fans? If you like "Of mice and Men" and "The grapes of Wrath" this might just be for you...
