About This Item
Throughout his writing career, John Steinbeck wrote either very substantial novels, such as "The Grapes of Wrath" or very compressed ones such as those that comprise this volume. Many admirers hold that in the short novels his genius is seen at its most effective.
Synopsis
Collected here for the first time in a deluxe paperback volume are six of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck’s most widely read and beloved short novels Tortilla Flat , The Red Pony , Of Mice and Men , The Moon Is Down , Cannery Row and The Pearl . From Steinbeck’s tale of commitment, loneliness, and hope in Of Mice and Men , to his tough yet charming portrait of people on the margins of Monterey society in Cannery Row , to The Pearl ’s mythic examination of the fallacy of the American dream, Steinbeck created stories that were realistic, rugged, and imbued with energy and resilience.
