The above excerpt from The Grapes of Wrath uses the rhetorical figure called parallelism, which is part of the group of the
diction figures.
In Literature, parallelism is a literary figure that consists of repeating the same structure several times changing some elements from the sentence. It is often used in order to emphasize what it is been said. What the speaker is looking for by using this method is to give balance and cadence to the idea, making it sound nicer in order to get an effect on the listener, persuading him through the repetition.
We can easily find parallelism examples in literary works as well as in everyday conversations. Here you can find some of them:

The tone of the words "greedy, deceive, revenge, rude," have a dark, not happy sorta vibe going on. So, it can't be generous because that is too nice. It also can't be wholesome. Flannel is like a washcloth (but also has a meaning of flattering or evasive talk). I think the BEST addition would be C. Selfish. Hope this helped!
