What American author wrote the novel "The Grapes of Wrath"?

  1. John Steinbeck

  2. Toni Morrison

  3. Harper Lee

  4. Ernest Hemingway

The correct answer is: John Steinbeck

The American author who wrote the novel "The Grapes of Wrath" is John Steinbeck. Toni Morrison, Harper Lee, and Ernest Hemingway are also prominent American authors, but neither of them wrote the aforementioned novel. Toni Morrison is best known for her novels "Beloved" and "Song of Solomon," Harper Lee is famous for her novel "To Kill a Mockingbird," and Ernest Hemingway is known for works such as "The Old Man and the Sea" and "A Farewell to Arms." Therefore, these options are incorrect because they are not the author of the specific novel mentioned in the question.
