	John Steinbeck
		Steinbeck's tale of the Joad family's travails through the Dust Bowl not only manages to evoke the hardship of the Great Depression -- it is also a stinging indictment of laissez-faire capitalism and a cry for a more vibrant democratic community.
		Although both Ma Joad and the government camps of California aspire to this ideal, neither in the end embodies Steinbeck's meaning- the former is too familial and the latter too bureaucratic.
		Indeed, in the end, it is only the children of the Joads, Tom and Rosasharn, who have embraced Steinbeck's democratic vision - Tom has left his family to organize other citizens, while Rosasharn gives up her mother's milk to a desperate stranger.
