Interesting and useful
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I am doing researh on John Steinbeck with a special focus on the thirties novels. This book offers some interesting interpretations and criticism. Presented as a series of articles, the insights in this book are easily accesible. The book is geared toward high schoolers, but the analysis is fairly sophisticated. This book is useful also because two points of view are offered--both praise and criticism are present here, and the book offers a balance of thought for the reader. Of particular interest were Slade's essay Biblical Imagery in TGOW, Gladstein's Steinbeck Speaks for all Immigrants, and Terkel's TGOW: Fifty Years Later. This book also briefly treats the subject of censorship in America. Recommended, along with Warren French's excellent A Companion to TGOW.
