Chapter 7
Its pretty hard to believe how these salesmen take advantage of the farmers that are trying to have better lives. They go to these places hoping to buy a used but good car to move on, but they are being cheated. Despite the fact that they know that they are being taken advantage of they have no choice but to accept these offers.

I do not think that the salesmen are being portrayed as they really are. It seems as if the viewpoint of the story is heavily one-sided. I think Steinbeck purposely designed this chapter, so that the readers could feel sympathy for the characters.
ReplyDeleteI felt the same way about the situation. They are oblivious about the scams but it's not their fault and you kind of wish to help them in some way.
