Just finished reading the book and I wouldn't say the bleakness has no purpose. The bleakness contrasts those brief moments of un-bleakness (hope feels like too strong a word in this context). Those moments like drinking coke or finding shrivelled apples on the brink of starvation became so much more meaningful because of how bleak their situation is.

Capitalism (depending on how you define it) is coming up on 600 years soon. That's usually the point at which systems start to break and new ones emerge. Unfortunately, if you're a fan of Marx you'll be aware of his theory that cycles of power relations and exploitation tend to reproduce themselves within these new systems - unless that cycle is broken.
