About this listen
Based on the epic novel by Nobel Laureate John Steinbeck. Set during the Great Depression, The Grapes of Wrath tells the powerful story of the Joad family’s trek from the dust bowl of Oklahoma to the promise of a new life in California. But what they find threatens to rip apart their lives, and sever the ties that bind them together. Starring Shirley Knight as Ma Joad, Frank Galati’s heart-wrenching adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel finds its timeless heart in the generous spirit of the common man.
A full-cast production featuring: Shirley Knight, Jeffrey Donovan, Emily Bergl, Mike Buie, Daniel Chacon, Maurice Chasse, Shannon Cochran, Trista Delamere, Francis Guinan, Charlie Matthes, Rod McLachlan, Bob Pescovitz,Joel Rafael, Stephen Ramsey, Nick Sadler, Andy Taylor, Todd Waring, Fredd Wayne, Michael Weston and Kate Williamson with live music performed by the Joel Rafael Band.

Great performance
Why is this a classic though? Just seemed like a good ramble. What did I miss?

Adaptation of the original work
It is a theatrical adaptation of the original work, not the original book narated.

Brought the story alive
I’ve read this book as a need to understand historical context of the Great Depression from a fictional prospective. Prior knowledge of this book was that it wasn’t the most gripping work of Steinbeck but overall it was a pleasant two hour listen. Gripping performance which allowed the story to come alive. Also allowed clear world building from the actor’s prospective of America during this period.

Awful - DNF
I don’t know if it was the format or the story, but this was truly terrible. Do not waste your money and time
