John Steinbeck
The History of Literature - Podcast tekijän mukaan Jacke Wilson / The Podglomerate
John Steinbeck (1902-1968) was an American author known for what the Nobel Committee, who awarded Steinbeck its Prize for Literature in 1962, called "his realistic and imaginative writings, [which combine] sympathetic humor and keen social perception." Among his 33 books include the novella Of Mice and Men and the novels The Grapes of Wrath and East of Eden. In this episode, Jacke and Mike take a look at the boy from Salinas, California, who became the great chronicler of twentieth-century Americans, especially those suffering through hardship, economic depression, and injustices of all kinds.
