    Zustand: NEAR FINE. First printing, a trade paperback original. A retracing of Steinbeck's steps in California and a discussion of his works. "The appellation "California writer" fits John Steinbeck more perfectly than perhaps any other literary figure associated with the Golden State. Steinbeck was born in California and called the state home for almost forty years. All of Steinbeck's significant works were about California or Californians, or have a highly pertinent California setting or background." Illustrated with photographs. Selected bibliography, index. 120 pp. Near fine in glossy illustrated wrappers (remainder line, some toning to the covers).

Written at a time of profound anxiety caused by the illness of his mother, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck draws on his memories of childhood in these stories about a boy who embodies both the rebellious spirit and the contradictory desire for acceptance of early adolescence. Unlike most coming-of-age stories, the cycle does not end with a hero "matured" by circumstances. As John Seelye writes in his introduction, reversing common interpretations, The Red Pony is imbued with a sense of loss. Jody's encounters with birth and death express a common theme in Steinbeck's fiction: They are parts of the ongoing process of life, "resolving" nothing. The Red Pony was central not only to Steinbeck's emergence as a major American novelist but to the shaping of a distinctly.Source: Publisher. Dennis, Wesley (illustrator).

    Reprint Penguin Edition. Good paperback copy; edges somewhat dust-dulled and nicked. Remains quite well-preserved overall. Physical description: xxvii, 105p. Summary: Semi-retarded Lennie is lost without his guardian, George, who feels his slow-witted friend has been delivered into his keeping. Bound by their fragile dream of owning land where they will 'belong', their paradisial future is soon shattered. ; Drifters in search of work, George and his childlike friend Lennie, have nothing in the world except the clothes on their back - and a dream that one day they will have some land of their own. Eventually they find work on a ranch in California's Salinas Valley, but their hopes are dashed as Lennie - struggling against extreme cruelty, misunderstanding and feelings of jealousy - becomes a victim of his own strength. Tackling universal themes of friendship and shared vision, and giving a voice to America's lonely and dispossessed, Of Mice and Men remains Steinbeck's most popular work, achieving success as a novel, Broadway play and three acclaimed films. Subjects: Classic fiction. Classics. Fiction: general & literary. Modern & contemporary fiction. Novel. Steinbeck, John. Penguin classics. 1 Kg.
