Pleasant read that inspires a revitalizing spirit for adventure. Is it Steinbeck’s best work? So far, no. Not by a fair margin. But perhaps I am ill-equipped to make such a claim as I am merely an amateur Steinbeck scholar. Many who are harsh to criticize this book, however, seem to look past Steinbeck’s thoughtful commentary on the changing American landscape, the very reason I find this to be an enjoyable read.
