Steinbeck, John
Four scenes, four people: the husband who yearns for a son, ignorant of his own sterility; the wife who commits adultery to fulfill her husbandâs wish; the father of the child; and the outsider whose actions will affect them all. In this novel of extraordinary sensitivity and insight, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck casts an unwavering light on these four intertwined lives, revealing in their finely drawn circumstances the universal contours of vulnerability and passion, desperation and desire.
