John SteinbeckEast of Eden “All novels ... are built on the never-ending contest in ourselves between good and evil.” John Steinbeck, one of America’s greatest writers, considered East of Eden to be his most important work. Set in California, the novel is a story of love and jealousy, forgiveness and revenge—and what it means to be human.
