East of Eden: John Steinbeck Centennial Edition (1902-2002) - Hardcover

by Unknown Author

A monumental, Biblically-inspired novel by John Steinbeck, 'East of Eden' is a hardcover centennial edition. Steinbeck himself deemed it 'the first book,' echoing mythic power and simplicity. Set in California's Salinas Valley, it traces the intertwined fates of the Trasks and Hamiltons, reenacting Adam and Eve's fall and Cain and Abel's rivalry. Steinbeck's later masterpiece, it explores identity, love, and its absence, with characters that captivate. Adapted into a 1955 film by Elia Kazan, starring James Dean, and a Book Club favorite, it remains a cultural staple.
