[Novel] The Winter of Our Discontent (John Steinbeck)

The Winter of Our Discontent

Book

Another one of Steinbeck’s looks at the clash between human kindness and money, though it’s not as heavy hitting as Grapes of Wrath.

Positive:
Negative:
Beautiful, effective prose
Feels a bit familiar if you know previous Steinbeck’s works
Interesting, likable, profound characters
Solid, profound story about a kind man’s struggle in the world ruled by money
Thought-provoking on life and human nature
