Blurb: “OF MICE AND MEN
Clinging to each other in their loneliness and alien-ation, George and his simple-minded friend
Lennie dream, as drifters will, of a place to call their own. But after they come to work on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, their hopes, like "the best laid schemes o' mice an' men," begin to go awry....
"The story is simple but superb... deeply felt, richly conceived, and perfectly ordered"-Henry Seidel Canby, Saturday Review. "A thriller, a gripping tale... that you will not set down until it is finished... Steinbeck has touched the quick " —The New York Times.
CANNERY ROW
"Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream." There, amid the sardine canneries, vacant lots, flophouses, and honky-tonks, Steinbeck assembled his most colorful gallery of characters-from Lee Chong, the grocer, to Dora Flood, proprietress of a bordello called the Bear Flag Restaurant. "One of the least pretentious of [Steinbeck's] books, but | believe that it is the one I have most enjoyed reading" —Edmund Wilson.
