Story
This lush, lyrical fantasy is Steinbeck's sole work of historical fiction. Henry Morgan ruled the Spanish Main in the 1670s, ravaging the coasts of Cuba and America and striking terror wherever he went. His lust and greed knew no bounds, and he was utterly consumed by two passions; to possess the mysterious woman known as La Santa Roja, the Red Saint, and to conquer Panama and wrest 'the cup of gold' from Spanish hands.

Story
Returning to the scene of Cannery Row, Steinbeck brilliantly re-creates its bawdy, high-spirited world of bums, drunks and hookers, telling the story of what happened to everyone after the war. There’s Fauna, the latest madam at the Bear Flag brothel; Doc, still there for everyone else but feeling strangely sad himself; and Suzy, the new hustler in town who might just be the girl to save him.

Story
Do you know it, do you remember it, the drives, the attitudes, the terrors and, yes, the joys? Thus Steinbeck introduces his collection of poignant and hard-hitting dispatches for the New York Herald Tribune when the Second World War was at its height. He begins in England, recounting the courage of the bomber crews, the tragic air-raids and the strangeness of the British, before being sent to Africa and joining a special operations unit off the coast of Italy.

Story
This classic collection of short stories serves as the ideal introduction to Steinbeck's work. Set in the idyllic Salinas Valley in California, where simple people farm the land and struggle to find a place for themselves in the world, these stories reflect many of the concerns key to Steinbeck as a writer: the tensions between town and city, labourers and owners, past and present. Included here are the celebrated tales 'The Murderer' and 'The Chrysanthemums'.

Story
Originally published at the zenith of Nazi Germany's power, The Moon Is Down explores the effects of invasion on both the conquered and the conquerors. Occupied by enemy troops, a small, peaceable town comes face-to-face with evil imposed from the outside and betrayal from within the close-knit community. As he delves into the motivations and emotions of the enemy, Steinbeck uncovers profound and often unsettling truths both about war and human nature.

I Mexico, i nærheten av Mexicogolfen, lever perlefiskeren Kino en fattig, men forholdsvis lykkelig tilværelse sammen med konen Juana og den vesle sønnen deres Coyotito. En skjebnesvanger dag blir Coyotito stukket av en skorpion, og foreldrene hans tar ham med til byen slik at han kan bli undersøkt av en lege. Legen lar dem i klare vendinger få vite at behandlingen hans ikke er gratis og at det egentlig er under hans verdighet å behandle et indianerbarn. Samme dag finner Kino en kjempestor og kostbar perle som vekker håp om økonomisk trygghet.

Story
Both a fast-paced story of social unrest and strike, and the tale of one young man's struggle for identity, In Dubious Battle is a novel about the apocalyptic violence that breaks out when the masses become the mob. Set in California apple country, a strike by migrant workers spirals out of control as principled defiance turns into blind fanaticism. Caught in this upheaval is Jim Nolan, a once aimless man who finds himself briefly becoming the leader of the strike before being crushed in its service.

En Californie, pendant la Grande Crise, Lennie et George vont de ferme en ferme. Ils louent leurs bras en attendant le jour où ils auront leur ferme à eux, avec un petit bout de luzerne pour élever des lapins. Lennie, malgré sa taille de colosse, n'a pas plus de malice qu'un enfant de six ans ; George veille sur lui, le protège du monde qui n'est pas tendre aux innocents. Le soir, ils se racontent leur rêve, celui de la maison et des lapins. Mais allez savoir pourquoi, les rêves de certains finissent toujours en cauchemars.

I gjennombruddsromanen sin, Dagdrivergjengen, beskriver Steinbeck med overdådig humor og stor innlevelse de såkalte paisanoenes omflakkende og ubekymrede landstrykerliv. Disse californiske vagabondene er etterkommerne av den gamle befolkningen – spanjoler, indianere og mexicanere. De er ikke styrt av materielle goder, men lever fra dag til dag som ekte livsnytere, konstant opptatt av å skaffe den neste gallonen vin eller gjøre erobringer blant damene som krysser deres vei.

Onsdagar, ofta refererad till som veckans värsta dag, har trots allt en bra egenskap. Den följs av den underbara torsdagen. En man, Doktorn, återvänder till Monterey i Kalifornien efter andra världskrigets slut, men finner att den förut så glada platsen med de tidigare så uppsluppna människorna nu är grå, och krigstrött. Dessutom har doktorns biologiska anstalt förfallit under hans frånvaro, och han börjar känna att hans liv saknar syfte och mening.

Dagdriverne fra Ungkarlehjemmet "Palace" og pigerne fra byens ikke helt almindelige bordel "The Bear Flag" slår sig sammen og skaffer Doc det mikroskop, der bringer hans forskning videre og tilmed skaffer ham en ung og herlig kone.
