Duration: 1 hour 58 minutes Description: Steinbeck's last novel - and not like his previous books.

The setting is an old New England town. The hero of the novel is the son of the town’s founders, a well-established man, in a word, an average, respectable American. Steinbeck in those years was worried about the decline of morals in the country, the lack of a worthy goal, and in his novel he frankly showed how the American way of life affects the ordinary respectable bourgeois, pushing him onto the path of betrayal and crime for the sake of the pursuit of wealth.

Pascal Covici: “...There is not a note of hope in the book, and there shouldn’t be any there. It subverts the reverence for so-called virtue, for success, for the American way of life. Few writers have attacked these American concepts with such force. Nobody but you has even tried to do this this decade... You have written a great book, John, and God help you."

Author: “...A bad novel should entertain readers, an average one should influence their feelings, and a good one should illuminate their path. I don’t know if my novel will be able to fulfill at least one of these tasks, but my goal is to illuminate the path.”
