The Short Novels of John Steinbeck: Critical Essays with a Checklist to Steinbeck Criticism

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) "The Grapes of Wrath" is generally considered Steinbeck's masterpiece, but the short novel was the form he most frequently turned to and most consciously theorized about, and with constant experimentation he made the form his own.

This collection reviews what has been categorized as the "good" and the "bad," looking beyond the careless labeling that has characterized a great deal of the commentary on Steinbeck's writing to the true strengths and weaknesses of the works. The contributors demonstrate that even in the...
