"No. No. NO!"

"Grapes of Wrath" not Socialist agitprop?
I would disagree.

Catch 22 is an operating manual for today’s government.

The Fonda movie? Yes.

The book? Maybe, but it describes things of that time as they might have been witnessed by a non-Republican.

Was Steinbeck a socialist Democrat? Probably. But people who have read the book FIRST know that what he wrote is true.

And, once again, not every Democrat of that time was a socialist or a Marxist.

Orwell’s 1984 is the daily civilians version.

E-Reader’s (Nook or Kindle “eInk” screens, ‘Fire” models have a traditional computer screen) make fonts as large or small as you want. “Heart of Darkness” is public domain so is free to D/L for e-readers or is available at the following link as an HTML version that you can “Zoom In” on in your browser:

http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/526

You could also just download the Kindle or Nook e-reader apps to your PC and use them to read ebooks on your PC screen...hard on the the eyes tho...”eink” readers are easier on the eye (no refresh rate).
