"Ancient pagan beliefs the great Greek epics and the Bible all inform this extraordinary novel by Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck which occupied him for more than five difficult years. While fulfilling his dead father's dream of creating a prosperous farm in California Joseph Wayne comes to believe that a magnificent tree on the farm embodies his father's spirit. His brothers and their families share in Joseph's prosperity and the farm flourishes-until one brother frightened by Joseph's pagan belief kills the tree allowing disease and famine to descend on the farm.

First edition in the blue binding. 8vo publisher’s original blue cloth lettered on the upper cover blind and on the spine in gilt in the publisher’s original dustjacket the jacket marked Book Club. With a previous owner's bookplate. 208 pp. A very good copy with just a touch of wear to the extremities the dustjacket with a little chipping to the tips and a little rubbing. Due to the war standards in publishing this book did not usually age well but this copy has come through quite well. FIRST EDITION AND A VERY GOOD COPY. The warm and funny story of the inhabitants of Cannery Row in Monterey California. Steinbeck dedicated the book to his close friend Ed Ricketts upon whom he modeled Doc the central character of the novel. CANNERY ROW is a unique blend of lighthearted humor scientific detachment and tender empathy. Rather than featuring a strict plot it paints a vibrant affectionate portrait of a Depression-era Monterey street and its community of social outcasts. Unlike Steinbeck's darker tragedy-driven epics like The Grapes of Wrath this work is largely episodic written as a series of interconnected vignettes. Viking hardcover
