Burning Bright
New York: The Viking Press 1950. First Edition. Octavo. 159pp. Steinbeck devised a new form the "play-novelette".a play that is easy to read or short novel that cam be played simply by lifting out the dialogue. Using this new method he presents a modern story with elements of a morality play concerned with basic human drives: love jealousy friendship the desire to have a child. This work provides some startling surprises as the scenes shift. A near fine copy bound in gray-beige cloth lettered in red spine lettering red in near fine unclipped dust jacket with some fading to spine as usual small closed tear near bottom edge of rear panel two minute nicks to dust jacket at front fold. A very nice clean copy without names or bookplates. The Viking Press unknown books

Hunter who was the Works Progress Administration WPA commissioner in the early 1940s under the FDR administration Steinbeck and his second wife Gwen Conger were married March 29 1943 just 11 days after receiving his final divorce decree from his first wife Carol Steinbeck has Inscribed the first preliminary as follows "For Howard/who really/belongs in/Cannery Row/John Steinbeck/last night in New York 1944" this galley lacks all the preliminaries found in the 1945 published version such as half titles title page copyright page dedication page etc. although not specifically cited in Goldstone & Payne there is a notation under G&P A22a that "a copy of the unrevised galley proofs is in the Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas" see Morrow 172 that copy with a yellow label on front giving publication date and price that is not on this copy--the Morrow copy was not signed or inscribed now housed in a beautiful custom clamshell case with leather spine laid in loosely is a letter of provenance from Ellen Leonard who was given this proof by Hunter's wife Edna.

Steinbeck John
Cannery Row
New York: The Viking Press 1945 First edition advance issue in the publisher's blue wrappers. An excellent copy with only some minor fading to spine else fine. Cannery Row is a Depression-era novel set in Monterey California. The plot takes place on a grungy street with "the gathered and scattered tin and iron and rust and splintered wood chipped pavement and weedy lots junk heaps sardine canneries of corrugated iron honky tonks restaurants and whore houses and little crowded groceries and laboratories and flophouses." The actual street in Monterey has since been renamed "Cannery Row" in honor of this iconic novel. The plot features an unlikely cast of characters including a marine biologist a grocer a restaurateur and a group of local vagabonds. Cannery Row is exemplar of Steinbeck's talent for making even the most unsavory characters relatable and endearing; Mack and his group of homeless squatters are described as "gentlemen and philosophers united by a common dislike of a steady job and a mutual feeling for the pleasures of living according to their lights." Much of the inspiration for this novel and its 1954 sequel Sweet Thursday were drawn from the author's own life; Steinbeck was born in Monterey County grew up knowing fishermen and other laborers and was close friends with a marine biologist Ed Ricketts who worked on the real Cannery Row. First Edition. Fine. New York: The Viking Press unknown books

Cannery Row.
New York: The Viking Press 1945. First edition of this classic work by the Nobel Prize-winning author. Octavo bound in three quarters morocco over marbled boards gilt titles and tooling to the spine raised bands. In fine condition. John Steinbeck's picaresque novel set against the backdrop of the sardine canneries vacant lots flophouses and honky-tonks of Monterey California "was as complex as Steinbeck was. In a way it was a summation of all his conflicts and contradictions and all that he had learned. It was Steinbeck-funny and deadly serious all at the same time sentimental and coldly deterministic loving and satirical lyrical and yet very precise. Nowhere else in his work is his poetry so well controlled and nowhere else does he cut quite so deep" Benson 554-5. The Viking Press hardcover books

Cup of Gold: A Life of Henry Morgan Buccaneer with Occasional Reference to History
New York: Robert M. McBride & Company 1929 First edition first printing of Steinbeck's first book. A very good or better copy with a lightly faded spine minor rubbing to the extremities some offsetting and a very minor abrasion on the front endpaper with a former owner bookplate to the front pastedown. Overall in very good condition. Cup of Gold is Steinbeck's first novel and only piece of historical fiction. The book is loosely based on the pirate Henry Morgan whose two main goals are to conquer Panama City the "cup of gold" and to win the heart of La Santa Roja a woman rumored to be as beautiful as the sun. Although this was his first work and is somewhat unique in plot Cup of Gold shows the author's early interest in themes he continued to use throughout his career as a writer: piracy and myth. 1st Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good. New York: Robert M. McBride & Company hardcover books
