John_Steinbeck

John Steinbeck John Steinbeck is one of the greatest storytellers of the twentieth century. His wonderful novellas Of Mice and Men, The Pearl, Cannery Row, and The Red Pony not only introduce readers to a fascinating, realistic cast of characters, make the hills and seacoast of California and Mexico come to life, but also tell intriguing stories of the lives of real people. Steinbeck's characters are not the rich men and women of California's boom days, but are the homeless, the migrant workers, the poor fishermen, and the farmers. However, each of these people has a deceptively simple, but important story to tell, a story filled with love and pain.
