  1. The Grapes Of Wrath By:Denisha Becker English 3 May 25, 2012

  2. Uncle John • Uncle John Joad • 50 • Blames Himself For The Death Of His Wife !

  3. Wife </3 R.I.P • Conflict which arose with the death of his wife. When indirectly involved in the death of a loved one, this person usually feels at fault for the death; they think they could have saved them.

  4. Guiltiness • He blames himself for the death of his wife and feels he has brought bad luck to his entire family

  5. Money • The Joad family was staying with Uncle John. Like most of the impoverished farmers Uncle John was saving enough money to travel to California. This included saving for an old jalopy that would take them there.

  6. Housing • after losing their homes and their lands, but Willy Feeley goes to work for the landowners, driving a tractor for $3 a day. He chooses money over community

  7. Food • The Joads eat hot biscuits, bacon, and coffee in Oklahoma. There are not extravagant, but they live comfortably. They have enough food to feed the entire family, and they know how to carb up. They spend the rest of the trip, however, surviving on salted pork, fried dough, or boiled potatoes. They are poor, hungry, but determined to survive. When they get a little money working in the cotton fields in California, they eat pork chops, potatoes, milk, Cracker Jack, and occasionally pancakes. Wouldn't you want to splurge after months of never getting enough to eat?

  8. Clothing • Tom Joad wears the new clothes that the prison gives him. Even though the clothes are cheap and don't fit him, he looks clean and successful.
