THE APES OF WRATH!

Andrew’s favorite book is “The Apes of Wrath”, according to the N64 strategy guide. I’ve been amusingly haunted by this for years, so it’s time to say my piece.

My first thought was (1) “Andrew reads…?”. My second thought was (2) “That’s totally hilarious. Andross’s army is full of wrathful apes, after all.” My third thought was (3) “Wait a minute. The source material, the Grapes of Wrath, is a sad and soulful tale of poverty, death, and community under struggle. Could the Apes of Wrath be a similar book!?”

It was obviously just a silly monkey joke by the creators, but what if we took it seriously for juicy fanfic/worldbuilding/lore reasons?

We can muse that if the Apes of Wrath is anything like the source material it’s parodying by John Steinbeck, it concerns the plight of simian migrant workers who travel far from home in hopes of financial stability during Some Great Lylatian Depression. Perhaps it’s written by someone called Yohn Steinbock (a Steinbock goat).

Many of these ape characters would be a part of impoverished families who starve to death in hopes of a promised land that never materializes. Perhaps Corneria’s governance promised these people something that it never actually delivered on? Were they deceived in this story? Ignored? Abandoned? Exploited?
