East of Eden
Get hold of East of Eden - by John Steinbeck
Customer Review
(Amazon)Reviewer: Sharon Whittaker
By far, the best of Steinbeck's books, EAST OF EDEN will knock your socks off. Not only an intense emotional family saga, but a foray into biblical translations and a time capsule of northern California, this epic tale will keep you riveted from beginning to end, the same way McCrae's Tour of Southern Homes does (fiction) or the way the unique and ever-popular Secret Life of Bees does. Great stuff all of these.

"UM...gotta say I don't think Grapes of Wrath should be on the list (I know there is probably not a Lit Teacher on the planet that will agree with me on that) BUT East of Eden by Steinbeck MUST be added to this list!! Regardless of the societal impact of G of W, East of Eden is just a better book!"
So what do you think about this book?
