Editorial Reviews

Review

“Due to the diverse topics and, for the most part academic, essays, East of Eden: New and Recent Essays serves as a tool for Steinbeck scholars looking for new arguments and critical analyses as well as a primer and supplemental text to those new to Steinbeck’s work. This book could be used to help an Intro to Steinbeck class understand some of the unique themes or conversations taking place around EoE. It could also serve as a starting-point to a study in setting or allegory, as several of the essays inside touch on those elements of fiction.” – Eric W. Riddle, Weber State University, in: Rocky Mountain Review of Language and Literature 69.1 (2015), pp. 107-109
