Student Companion to John Steinbeck: (Student Companions to Classic Writers)
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Starred Review ...well organized and geared toward the general reader. Because Steinbeck is required reading in many high school curriculums, this would be a valuable resource for students. Highly Recommended.”–
Book Description
This book guides readers through these and other important Steinbeck works, particularly those that are most often taught, including The Pearl (1945), The Red Pony (1933), and significant short fiction. Clear analysis of each work includes discussions of character development, plot and setting, thematic treatment, historical contexts, and alternate critical readings. A biographical chapter, as well as an examination of the author's contributions and career, helps readers gain a sense of Steinbeck the man and his position as one of America's most important writers.
