As described by the USA Today, this novel is said to embody the american spirit, and shows a chilling example of how one can achieve their dreams.
Ernest Hemingway was an American Author during the 1990's. He had a certain style of writing that brought a realness of the literature that increased as he lost faith in Western idea and thought because of the war. 
John Steinbeck is an American Author, the author of Mice and Men, the Grapes of Wrath, and East of Eden. These works often dealt with real issues that are going on in the world, such as social and economic issues.
