This review is from: Critical Companion to John Steinbeck: A Literary Reference to His Life and Work (Paperback)
I have a comprehensive study of this author with this book. More than I had imagined. I did read the entries appropriate for my project e.g. East Of Eden and biographical information. While concise I feel I am prepared for the occasion for which I ordered the book and enjoyed the read. From the list of other books by the same author I have selected a few more to read and think this book will help me enjoy those reads as well. Perhaps scholarly but not snooty and incomprehensible.
