If you don't like The Grapes of Wrath but are interested in Dust Bowl-era internal migration and the Okie diaspora, you might like the non-fiction book Rising in the West : The True Story of an "Okie" Family from the Great Depression through the Reagan Years by Dan Morgan (New York: Knopf, 1992). This is a non-fiction work that is a good alternative to Steinbeck's leftist tome.
