réf. TTB-2242Hardcover. Fine. The final novel of one of America's most beloved writers - a tale of degeneration corruption and spiritual crisis. In awarding John Steinbeck the 1962 Nobel Prize in Literature the Nobel committee stated that with The Winter of Our Discontent he had resumed his position as an independent expounder of the truth with an unbiased instinct for what is genuinely American. Ethan Allen Hawley the protagonist of Steinbeck's last novel works as a clerk in a grocery store that his family once owned. With Ethan no longer a member of Long Island's aristocratic class his wife is restless and his teenage children are hungry for the tantalizing material comforts he cannot provide. Then one day in a moment of moral crisis Ethan decides to take a holiday from his own scrupulous standards. Set in Steinbeck's contemporary 1960 America the novel explores the tenuous line between private and public honesty and today ranks alongside his most acclaimed works of penetrating insight into the American condition. hardcover

He won the 1962 Nobel Prize in Literature 'for his realistic and imaginative writings combining as they do sympathetic humor and keen social perception'. He has been called 'a giant of American letters.' During his writing career he authored 33 books with one book coauthored alongside Edward Ricketts including 16 novels six non-fiction books and two collections of short stories. He is widely known for the comic novels Tortilla Flat 1935 and Cannery Row 1945 the multi-generation epic East of Eden 1952 and the novellas The Red Pony 1933 and Of Mice and Men 1937. The Pulitzer Prize–winning The Grapes of Wrath 1939 is considered Steinbeck's masterpiece and part of the American literary canon. In the first 75 years after it was published it sold 14 million copies. Most of Steinbeck's work is set in central California particularly in the Salinas Valley and the California Coast Ranges region. His works frequently explored the themes of fate and injustice especially as applied to downtrodden or everyman protagonists."
