I wonder if Steinbeck’s “The Grapes of Wrath” has been the object of complaints from some parents who would demand it be pulled from school library shelves? The final scene has apparently always disturbed some people (let alone the entire social message within the book). (Daughter Rose of Sharon had a stillborn, and uses her breast milk to feed a sick old man.)
