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.
