The volume features the authoritative LOA edition of Steinbeck's Pulitzer-Prize winning masterpiece "The Grapes of Wrath" in a newly corrected text based on the author's manuscript, typescript, & galleys. Written in an incredibly compressed 5-month period, the novel had an electrifying impact upon publication in 1939, unleashing a political storm w/ its vision of America's dispossessed struggling for survival. It continues to exert a powerful influence on American culture, & has inspired artists as diverse as John Ford, Woody Guthrie, & Bruce Springsteen. Tracing the journey of the Joad family from the dust bowl of Oklahoma to the migrant camps of California, Steinbeck creates an American epic, spacious, impassioned, & pulsating w/ the rhythms of living speech. The novel won the Pulitzer Prize & has since sold millions of copies worldwide. This text of "The Grapes of Wrath" has been newly edited based on Steinbeck's manuscript, typescript, & proofs. Many errors have been corrected, & words omitted or misconstrued by his typist have been restored. In addition, "The Harvest Gypsies", his 1936 investigative report on migrant workers, which laid the groundwork for the novel, is included as an appendix. "The Long Valley" (1938) displays Steinbeck's brilliance as a writer of short stories, including such classics as "The Chrysanthemums", "The White Quail", "Flight", & "The Red Pony". Set in the Salinas Valley landscape that was Steinbeck's enduring inspiration, the stories explore moments of fear, tenderness, isolation, & violence w/ poetic intensity. "The Log from the Sea of Cortez", an account of the 1940 marine biological expedition in which Steinbeck participated w/ his close friend Ed Ricketts, is a unique blend of science, philosophy, & adventure, as well as one of Steinbeck's most revealing expositions of his core beliefs. First published in 1941 as part of the collaborative volume "Sea of Cortez", Steinbeck's narrative was reissued separately a decade later, augmented by the moving tribute "About Ed Ricketts". * ABOUT THE EDITOR: ROBERT DEMOTT is the Edwin & Ruth Kennedy Distinguished Professor at Ohio University & the author of "Steinbeck". * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Hailed as "the most important book-publishing project in the nation's history" (Newsweek), this acclaimed series is restoring America's literary heritage in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made" (New Republic).
