Amarah adalah sebuah novel realisme karangan John Steinbeck dan diterbitkan pada tahun 1939.[2] Amarah berhasil memenangkan National Book Award dan Penghargaan Pulitzer untuk fiksi, dan dikutip dengan jelas ketika Steinbeck dianugerahi Penghargaan Nobel pada tahun 1962.
Berlatarkan masa Depresi Besar, novel ini berfokus pada Joads, keluarga miskin yang berprofesi sebagai petani penyewa lantas diusir dari rumahnya di Oklahoma karena kelaparan, kesulitan ekonomi, perubahan industri pertanian, dan penyitaan bank memaksa petani berhenti bekerja. Karena situasi mereka yang hampir tanpa harapan, dan sebagian karena mereka terjebak di Dust Bowl, Joad berangkat ke California bersama ribuan Okie lainnya mencari pekerjaan, tanah, martabat, dan sebuah masa depan.
Amarah sering dibaca di sekolah menengah Amerika dan kelas sastra perguruan tinggi karena konteks sejarah dan warisan abadi.[3] Adapatasi filmnya dibintangi oleh Henry Fonda dan disutradarai John Ford, rilis pada tahun 1940.

Discusses the visual style of John Ford's cinematic adaptation of the novel. Usually the movie is examined in terms of its literary roots or its social protest. But the imagery of the film reveals the important theme of the Joad family's coherence. The movie shows the family in closeups, cramped in small spaces on a cluttered screen, isolated from the land and their surroundings. Dim lighting helps abstract the Joad family from the reality of Dust Bowl migrants. The film's emotional and aesthetic power comes from its generalized quality attained through this visual style.
