I finished East of Eden a few days ago, and I must say that I really enjoyed the book except for the ending. I was left wanting more, but I'm not sure what else I wanted. Did I want another 300 pages to find out what happened to Cal & Lee & the other characters? Maybe. Do you think Lee might set out on his own now & finally realize his dreams?
I am curious what you all think about Cathy. What does she want? She seemingly does not want parents, children, a husband, a nice farm to live on, or Adam's money. What does she want out of life?
My predictions: (I've read through chapter 17.)
1. Cathy will hunt Samuel Hamilton down; she realizes that Samuel knows she is evil & will try to eliminate him.
2. Adam will go after Cathy and attempt to bring her back into the marriage.
3. I think Lee will take care of the twins initially.
4. I predict Samuel & his sons will continue to work for Adam, & the Trask and Hamilton families will interact through this connection.
Elizabeth, I'm going to have to go back and review Chapter 13 now!

I've finally located a copy of East of Eden at my library, so I'm looking forward to reading it with all of you. It has been on my to-read list for ages, so I'm thankful for the motivation to read it.
Far from being a sub-standard education, as some Mitford biographers have suggested, PNEU was and is a highly regarded, reliable and time-tested system of teaching.
