by John Steinbeck; Nancy Steinbeck


Review this book!

In this dual biography, the son of the novelist John Steinbeck writes about life with his famous father in a sadly dysfunctional family racked by alcoholism. In addition, Nancy Steinbeck, who was married to John Steinbeck IV until his death in 1991, writes about their marriage, revealing that, although her husband perpetrated his father's abusive and neglectful personality, she continued to love and stand by him.

Media Reviews

"While John's prose is rich with imagery and Nancy's story is sympathetic, a sense of aimlessness pervades the book. Only devoted Steinbeck fans will feel compelled to read this dual memoir."
