I had the opportunity to sub in an english class last year and I had a know it all teenager tell me that there is no purpose to reading this book.

I can't remember if this was on your original list or not. Anyway, I've heard really great things about this book and his others, but for some reason I'm intimidated by Steinbeck. I think maybe because East of Eden is so gigantic (although I know his others are much shorter). Glad you liked it--I'll definitely have to keep my eye for this one.</p><p>Trishs last blog post..<a href="http://trishsbooks.blogspot.com/2008/07/picture-of-dorian-gray-oscar-wilde.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://trishsbooks.blogspot.com/2008/07/picture-of-dorian-gray-oscar-wilde.html">The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde</a></p>TrishSat, 02 Aug 2008 10:47:37 -0000
