devils_daughter:
F Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, takes place sometime in the 20's but boring as fuck so use only as a last resort.

YoungGrassHopper:
I'm not sure of the year of Grapes of Wrath...but that's in that same dust-bowl era time frame...may be a bit over...

but it would be my first choice. Steinbeck in general is a good choice.  

as for other novels...
(i'm not sure of the exact time of these either...)

Babbit, I believe is set in late 20's/early 30's?

The Great Gatsby

As I lay Dying, Faulkner

catcher in the Rye, Salinger

In our time, Hemmingway

To Kill a Mockingbird

JLM:
catcher in the rye was in the 50's.

Some others:
The 42nd Parallel - Dos Passos
Their Eyes Were Watching God - Zora Neal Hurston
The Awakening - Kate Chopin (Though I'm not sure if this follows the reqirements in terms of location)
The Jungle - Upton Sinclair

--- Quote from: Kai ---I would say Poe's The Murders in the Rue Morgue (One of my personal favorite poe pieces) but it's in France. RAZOR WIELDING CHIMPANZEES MURDERING
--- End quote ---


That probably is my favourite work by Poe.  Heh, chimps.
