The story revolves around Long Islander Ethan Allen Hawley, who works as a clerk in a grocery store he used to own. His wife and children resent their lowly social and economic position, and don't put any value in the high levels of honesty and integrity that Ethan struggles to maintain in a corrupt society. Under this constant pressure, Hawley will eventually manage to get back the store by renouncing his morals, but the new-found wealth will not bring happiness.

评分图书标签: 原版小说 美国文学 fiction steinbeck 1
那些说这书无趣的是因为没有感受史旦爷爷平民化又妙趣横生的美式语言,中文译本太生硬,不怪译者,华丽的句子书看多了都会用,越是农村小说越是难译呢。写美国农村的题材是我最爱的,没有表面上的歇斯底里,却是人性与伦理实在的揪扯。
评分One of Steinbeck's best. probably better than Cannery Row. Right on with the modern questions about morality: "How do you feel about backstabbing when superficially it is an act of honesty? How do you feel about letting a friend kill himself when it is disguised, and can be interpreted, as help?"

评分It isn't true that there's a community of light, a bonfire of the world. Everyone carries his own, his lonely own.
