Babb's novel about the Dust Bowl and migrant farm workers was finally published in 2004 after her editor at Random House decided that the market wouldn't support two Dust Bowl novels and tore up her contract. Steinbeck went on to win the Pulitzer for "Grapes of Wrath," and Babb's novel sat on the shelf for 65 years. #rockinmay #dustinthewind
It takes place in Kansas during the Dirty 30s. So yeah, there's going to be a lot of #DustInTheWind. #RockInMay
#rockinmay #dustinthewind The final book in the excellent Silo trilogy.
So I could really think of good books for #dustinthewind so I just picked some books with wind in the title! #rockinmay

Song reminded me of Dust bowl days which we teach along with Of Mice & Men & To Kill a Mockingbird units. On a totally different note, Andrew Bird's rendition of Far from Any Road ( Be my Hand)
