steinbeck and i need to have a fireside chat. i love his position as a quasi-omniscient character in his own novel. is john steinbeck god in his own novel?

i’m intrigued to see how Lee goes through the novel. right now he seems to exist “outside” this east of eden / genesis retelling. i don’t know if it’s because he’s considered a foreigner by the land (barred out of the narrative cycle imposed on those that live here) or if steinbeck is trying to make a comment
