Med "Mus og mænd" cementerede Steinbeck sin status som en af de mest betydningsfulde amerikanske forfattere. Californien, under depressionen i 1930'erne: To venner og daglejere vandrer fra ranch til ranch i håb om at finde arbejde. George er lille og kvik, Lennie er stor og stærk, men retarderet. George har brug for Lennies kræfter, Lennie for den beskyttelse, George kan give ham. Deres håb er en dag at få fod under eget bord og dyrke deres eget stykke jord. Men Lennie forstår ikke, hvor stærk han faktisk er, og det fører en tragedie med sig.

Of Mice and Men and Zombies: Part One

Of Mice and Men and Zombies: Part One

Have you ever questioned how Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck would have went if there was a zombie apocalypse as opposed to the Great Depression? Well, I did. What started as a fun personal project quickly escalated into something bigger. This is a short novella, about half the length of an average book and does not fit into the Among the Dead series." Originally published in 1937 by John Steinbeck, re-imagined and corrupted by Ryan Colley in 2018 for this satirical novella. George Milton, an intelligent and quick witted survivor, and Lennie Small, a physically strong but intellectually challenged childlike individual, are two displaced ranch workers fleeing the apocalypse. Forced to move from place to place, partially due to Lennie's misdeeds and mainly due to the undead roaming the land. They both search for work in a collapsing world in an attempt to buy their own corner of heaven where they will be safe together from the "Sick Ones" and "live off the fatta the lan." For fans of the original novel, apocalypse fiction, or for those looking for something different."

Efter trettio år ges också John Steinbecks EN UNDERBAR TORSDAG ut på nytt, i nyöversättning av Einar Heckscher. Berättelsen utspelar sig, precis som DET STORA KALASET, i den lilla kuststaden Monterey i Kalifornien, snarlik den stad där författaren växte upp. Mac finns förstås där, han som är den påhittigaste av dagdrivarna i Ungkarlspalatset. Till bordellen "Björnflaggan" anländer en dag den unga kaxiga kvinnan Suzy, som av Fauna bjuds en plats på etablissemanget. Livsmedelsaffären har under de mellanliggande åren bytt ägare, Joseph and Mary Rivas med ett småkriminellt förflutet har tagit över. Fortfarande är Doc, läkaren och marinbiologen, i centrum för handlingen. Nyöversättningen presenteras av Per-Olof Mattsson, som skriver: "Steinbeck framträder tidigt som kritiker av konsumtionssamhället och dess överdrifter under den tid när USA inträder i shoppingens tidsålder." I motiveringen till John Steinbecks Nobelpris 1962 hette det: "För hans på en gång realistiska och fantasifulla berättarkonst, utmärkt av medkännande humor och social skarpsyn." Något som stämmer bra in på både DET STORA KALASET och EN UNDERBAR TORSDAG, underfundiga romaner med stort socialt patos.

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.

Vredens druvor

Vredens druvor

John Steinbeck

Viatone

mp3 cd-levyllä
Vredens druvor är en modern vandringssägen från 1930-talet om Oklahomas skuldsatta bönder, som drivs bort från sin jord och som lockas av reklamen till Kalifornien, där de utnyttjas skamlöst och slutar som arbetslösa och hemlösa på landsvägen. Romanens storhet kommer från Steinbecks äkta indignation och inlevelse i de fattiga böndernas öden samt hans tro på människans värdighet och vilja till överlevnad genom gemensam hjälp till och med under de svåraste förhållandena. Vredens druvor, som vid utgivningen omgående blev en bestseller, väckte en sådan våldsam debatt i USA, att utgivningen sågs som en nationell händelse. Den var en av de mest omtalade böckerna i amerikansk litteratur under 1900-talet och betraktas som Steinbecks huvudverk. Den vann Pulitzer-priset 1940 och var den huvudsakliga orsaken till att Steinbeck erhöll Nobelpriset 1962. "För den som i stället vill få sig depressionen till livs i litterär form, är den amerikanske Nobelpristagaren John Steinbecks mästerverk Vredens druvor ett förstahandsval. Steinbecks mäktiga, starkt samhällskritiska roman beskriver familjen Joads öden i massarbetslöshetens USA." ? Ragnar Roos, Dagens Nyheter

Originally published at the zenith of Nazi Germany's power, The Moon Is Down explores the effects of invasion on both the conquered and the conquerors. Occupied by enemy troops, a small, peaceable town comes face-to-face with evil imposed from the outside and betrayal from within the close-knit community. As he delves into the motivations and emotions of the enemy, Steinbeck uncovers profound and often unsettling truths both about war and human nature.
