Den fattige fisker, Kino, forsørger sin kone og sin lille dreng ved at dykke efter perler på bunden af Den Mexicanske Golf. En dag finder Kino en perle på størrelse med et havmågeæg, og fundet vækker et håb om økonomisk sikkerhed og et løfte om et bedre liv for familien. Da nyheden om Kinos fund spreder sig i den lille by, blusser det op i grådigheden hos befolkningen, der tyer til alle midler for at få fat i Kinos perle. PERLEN, som udkom i 1945, er en enkel og klassisk historie om de lidenskaber den store perle fremkalder, og om de mennesker, hvis skæbne den bliver en del af.

'I've done my damndest to rip a reader's nerves to rags, I don't want him satisfied.' Shocking and controversial when it was first published, The Grapes of Wrath is Steinbeck's Pultizer Prize-winning epic of the Joad family, forced to travel west from Dust Bowl era Oklahoma in search of the promised land of California. Their story is one of false hopes, thwarted desires and powerlessness, yet out of their struggle Steinbeck created a drama that is both intensely human and majestic in its scale and moral vision.

TIL EN UKJENT GUDHovedpersonen i denne romanen, Joseph Wayne, er en Josef-skikkelse av bibelsk format, som leder sitt folk ut av den steinete ørkenen og sammen med sine brødre grunnlegger et lite nybyggersamfunn i en fruktbar kalifornisk dal. Under nybyggernes flittige hender forvandles området til en rik og blomstrende farm. Et lite samfunn bygges opp og lever i spenningen mellom dalens overveldende fruktbarhet og den stadig tilbakevendende trusselen om ødeleggende tørke. Selv vinner Joseph landsbyens unge lærerinne og fører henne hjem til farmen som sin brud. Mens hans kjærlighet til jorden blir etter hvert en besettelse og han drives av indre krefter til å gå i forbund med "en ukjent gud", selve urkreftene bak den lunefulle naturen. Dette fører til sterke rivninger med Josephs kristne bror, som til slutt finner å måtte gripe inn. Til en ukjent Gud kom ut i 1933 og ble oversatt til norsk i 1961.
Las Uvas de la IRA: (spanish Language Edition of the Grapes of Wrath) = Grapes of Wrath
Las uvas de la ira es un hito en la literatura norteamericana que explora el conflicto entre ricos y pobres, analiza la reacci n feroz de un hombre contra la injusticia y el estoicismo de una mujer igualmente her ica, y refleja los horrores de la Gran Depresi n. Aunque sigue la migraci n de miles personas del Dust Bowl, Las uvas de la ira se enfoca en la historia de una familia de Oklahoma, los Joads, echados de su hogar y forzados a viajar rumbo a esa Tierra Prometida que era por ese entonces--y que de algun modo sigue siendo--California. De sus desventurasen un pa s dividido surge un drama sobre la dignidad humana, a un tiempo tr gico y majestuoso en su grandeza su valent a moral. Publicada por primera vez en 1939, la novela reflej su poca como Uncle Tom's Cabin reflej los a os antes de la Guerra Civil norteamericana. John Steinbeck, un escritor que simpatizaba con la cr tica fascista y comunista, insisti en que la versi n integral del "Himno de batalla de la Rep blica" fuese impresa en la primera edici n del libro, que adopta en su t tulo unas palabras del primer verso: "Est pisoteando la vendimia donde se conservan las uvas de la ira." La cr nica de Steinbeck sobre el avergonzante maltrato de las clases sociales de los a os treinta es tal vez el m s "americano" de todos los cl sicos norteamericanos.

A Penguin Classic Written at a time of profound anxiety caused by the illness of his mother, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck draws on his memories of childhood in these stories about a boy who embodies both the rebellious spirit and the contradictory desire for acceptance of early adolescence. Unlike most coming-of-age stories, the cycle does not end with a hero "matured" by circumstances. As John Seelye writes in his introduction, reversing common interpretations, The Red Pony is imbued with a sense of loss. Jody's encounters with birth and death express a common theme in Steinbeck's fiction: They are parts of the ongoing process of life, "resolving" nothing. The Red Pony was central not only to Steinbeck's emergence as a major American novelist but to the shaping of a distinctly mid twentieth-century genre, opening up a new range of possibilities about the fictional presence of a child's world. This edition contains an introduction by John Seelye. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

A controversial tale of friendship and tragedy during the Great Depression A Penguin Classic Over seventy-five years since its first publication, Steinbeck's tale of commitment, loneliness, hope, and loss remains one of America's most widely read and taught novels. An unlikely pair, George and Lennie, two migrant workers in California during the Great Depression, grasp for their American Dream. They hustle work when they can, living a hand-to-mouth existence. For George and Lennie have a plan: to own an acre of land and a shack they can call their own. When they land jobs on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, the fulfillment of their dream seems to be within their grasp. But even George cannot guard Lennie from the provocations, nor predict the consequences of Lennie's unswerving obedience to the things George taught him. Of Mice and Men represents an experiment in form, which Steinbeck described as "a kind of playable novel, written in a novel form but so scened and set that it can be played as it stands." A rarity in American letters, it achieved remarkable success as a novel, a Broadway play, and three acclaimed films. This edition features an introduction by Susan Shillinglaw, one of today's leading Steinbeck scholars.

Raised on a ranch in northern California, Jody is well-schooled in the hard work and demands of a rancher's life. He is used to the way of horses, too; but nothing has prepared him for the special connection he will forge with Gabilan, the hot-tempered pony his father gives him. With Billy Buck, the hired hand, Jody tends and trains his horse, restlessly anticipating the moment he will sit high upon Gabilan's saddle. But when Gabilan falls ill, Jody discovers there are still lessons he must learn about the ways of nature and, particularly, the ways of man.

A masterpiece of Biblical scope, and the magnum opus of one of America's most enduring authors A Penguin Classic In his journal, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck called East of Eden "the first book," and indeed it has the primordial power and simplicity of myth. Set in the rich farmland of California's Salinas Valley, this sprawling and often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families--the Trasks and the Hamiltons--whose generations helplessly reenact the fall of Adam and Eve and the poisonous rivalry of Cain and Abel. The masterpiece of Steinbeck's later years, East of Eden is a work in which Steinbeck created his most mesmerizing characters and explored his most enduring themes: the mystery of identity, the inexplicability of love, and the murderous consequences of love's absence. Adapted for the 1955 film directed by Elia Kazan introducing James Dean and read by thousands as the book that brought Oprah's Book Club back, East of Eden has remained vitally present in American culture for over half a century. This edition features an introduction by David Wyatt. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,800 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

Journal of a Novel: The East of Eden Letters
Each working day from January 29 to November 1, 1951, John Steinbeck warmed up to the work of writing East of Eden with a letter to the late Pascal Covici, his friend and editor at The Viking Press. It was his way, he said, of "getting my mental arm in shape to pitch a good game." Steinbeck's letters were written on the left-hand pages of a notebook in which the facing pages would be filled with the test of East of Eden. They touched on many subjects--story arguments, trial flights of workmanship, concern for his sons. Part autobiography, part writer's workshop, these letters offer an illuminating perspective on Steinbeck's creative process, and a fascinating glimpse of Steinbeck, the private man.
