You're missing the synopsis that hones in on a specific part that has nothing to do with the story but offers shock value.
For example:
The Grapes of Wrath - The F-ing turtle crosses the road. Eating lots of oranges gives you the shits.
(That's actually what I remember from that book.)

Author, thanks for the good clarification. But I'm still poor writer. For example, I want to make a synopsis for https://studydriver.com/lonely-characters-on-of-mice-and-men/ can I write that two friends are wandering around the country looking for work? Or do I need to report that this happened during the Great Depression? I would love any hints.
