The comparative analysis of these two works shows that both authors have goals and hopes that have social and political roots, and these social goals form the main basis of the two works. Although these two novels are similar in social themes such as social movements, strikes, repression, discrimination and political issues, but the way they deal with these issues has differences in some cases, for example John Stainbeck explicitly Terry expresses the issues but Modares Sadeghi reflects the issues in the envelope. Most of the characters in both novels are people who are serious political and social activists in their lives; For this reason all the events of the two novels are formed in connection with a social challenge and the story moves around the axis of that event.
