John Steinbeck


 In its quiet, unassuming way, Cannery Row is a brilliant novel.

Susan Shillinglaw, who wrote the introduction to the Penguin Classics edition, said that, like Melville, “Steinbeck was convinced that any transcendent vision was necessarily momentary. Only in the patterns of art can one retain remnants of that truth or marshal the holistic vision that contains them."
