Obviously it is not theory but as a piece of dystopian fiction what do y'all think of it. Is it as overtly propagandist as Orwell's works?

Edit: I'd also love to hear opinions on Grapes of Wrath which I did not read in 8th grade. Really I'd love to hear about Steinback in general, my great grandfather knew him in highschool (or so my grandmother claims)
