East Of Eden
John Steinbeck, John Steinbeck, David Wyatt
Set in the rich farmland of Salinas Valley, California, this powerful, often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families - the Trasks and the Hamiltons - whose generations helplessly re-enact the fall of Adam and Eve and the poisonous rivalry of Cain and Abel. Here Steinbeck created some of his most memorable characters and explored his most enduring themes- the mystery of identity, the inexplicability of love and the murderous consequences of love's absence

“It seems to me that if you or I must choose between two courses of thought or action, we should remember our dying and try so to live that our death brings no pleasure on the world.”

“When a man says he does not want to speak of something he usually means he can think of nothing else.”
