A Near Fine copy with the usual age darkening to the front pastedown in a Very Good plus unclipped dust jacket with gentle wear to the extremities and a short closed edge tear at the head of the spine. A collectible copy of this collection of classic Steinbeck fiction. This volume of stories collected with the encouragement of his longtime editor Pascal Covici serves as a wonderful introduction to the work of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck. Set in the beautiful Salinas Valley of California where simple people farm the land and struggle to find a place for themselves in the world these stories reflect Steinbeck’s characteristic interests: the tensions between town and country laborers and owners past and present. Included here are the O. Henry Prize-winning story “The Murder”; “The Chrysanthemums” perhaps Steinbeck’s most challenging story both personally and artistically; “Flight” “The Snake” “The White Quail” and the classic tales of “The Red Pony.” Viking Press, unknown
