year: November 1962

could someone try and find the correct ISBN for this edition? On the spine of my copy it reads '553 05663'.

description:

Ethan Allen Hawley, the protagonist of Steinbeck’s last novel, works as a clerk in a grocery store that his family once owned. With Ethan no longer a member of Long Island’s aristocratic class, his wife is restless, and his teenage children are hungry for the tantalizing material comforts he cannot provide. Then one day, in a moment of moral crisis, Ethan decides to take a holiday from his own scrupulous standards.

Set in Steinbeck’s contemporary 1960 America, the novel explores the tenuous line between private and public honesty that today ranks it alongside his most acclaimed works of penetrating insight into the American condition.

ISBN: 0553056638 (just prefixed with 0 and appended correct check digit), however this is a pre-ISBN edition. Added relevant notes.

All done.
