What does the novel tell us about the lite of peasants during the Greats Depression?

Answer»

During the time of the Great Depression, the peasants and farmers suffered more than urban dwellers. The peasants were exploited by the powerful and elite members of the society- Landlords, moneylenders, priests, and colonial bureaucrats. With the growth of Capitalists and industrialist class, the labor class was oppressed. Peasants were caught in a debt trap and this burden multiplied over time.
