约翰•斯坦贝克(John Steinbeck, 1902-1968),美国文学家,1962年获诺贝尔文学奖。
一生共创作27部作品,其中包括喜剧小说《罐头厂街》,跨类型作品《伊甸之东》,普利策奖获奖作品《愤怒的葡萄》,旅行作品《横越美国》等。
斯坦贝克是地位崇高的文学大 师,也是最受美国民众喜爱的畅销作家。他1968年过世之后,作品每年仍持续卖出两百万册,累计迄今已将近一亿册,其中超过半数是《愤怒的葡萄》《人鼠之间》这两部代表作。
斯坦贝克之所以深受美国人民欢迎,主要是因为他描写的人物正是最基层的社会大众。他刻画出他们面对困境时所展现出来的人性光辉:善良,同情,以及为生存而奋斗的勇气。
《人鼠之间》是美国中学10部必读经典之一,可谓一部真正的文学经典。

Annihilation or salvation?
评分9/10 “I should of knew,” George said hopelessly. “I guess maybe way back in my head I did.”
评分浓浓的美利坚乡土情,忧伤!
评分很多缩略用语,刚开始略难读。开始以为george会杀了lennie后自杀,哎。。。破碎的生活和不停的流浪
评分This is the first kindle book I purchased on amazon.com, which took me around 8$. These two men were both dependent on each other and had a common dream, going through so many difficuties, but the dream was broken at last. Sorrowful ending.
