Dust Bowl, The

Dust Bowl, The
Район пыльных бурь
Засушливый район на Западе [West]. Высушенные земли и пыльные бури 1933-35 в штатах Канзас, Колорадо, Оклахома, Нью-Мексико и Техас оставили тысячи фермеров без средств к существованию, и они пополнили ряды безработных периода Великой депрессии [Great Depression]. Их трагедия описана в романе Дж. Стейнбека [Steinbeck, John Ernest] "Гроздья гнева" ["The Grapes of Wrath"], многочисленных песнях В. Гатри [Guthrie, Woody (Woodrow Wilson)], выпустившего пластинку "Баллады пыльных бурь" ["Dust Bowl Ballads"]. После отмены "сухого закона" [Prohibition] "лозунгом" фермеров, живущих в этих краях, стал призыв к правительству: "Пиво вы нам дали, теперь дайте воду" ["You gave us beer, now give us water"]
