Story
In Monterey, on the California Coast, Sweet Thursday is what they call the day after Lousy Wednesday - one of those days that's just bad from the start. But Sweet Thursday is sunny and clear, a day when anything can happen. Returning to the scene of Cannery Row, Steinbeck brilliantly creates its bawdy, high-spirited world of bums, drunks and hookers, telling the story of what happened to everyone after the war.

Story
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.

Au cœur de l’Oklahoma des années 1930, les petits exploitants agricoles se font racheter de force leurs terres et se retrouvent aux abois. Mais, miracle, l’appel de la Californie retentit : ses fruits savoureux à cueillir, son coton à récolter et son grand besoin de main-d’œuvre. Toute la famille Joad se serre dans un pick-up pour atteindre cet eldorado avec le rêve d’y faire fortune. La Route 66 est longue, les dollars manquent rapidement, les grands-parents tombent malades, le véhicule les lâche...

Story
Øst for paradis (1952) er Steinbecks store dramatiske slægtsroman over tre generationer, hvor det gode kæmper mod det onde, som det er skildret i myten om Kain og Abel. I Steinbecks fortælling gentages kampen i to generationers brødrepar. I første generation er Charles i misundelse og ondskab tæt på at slå sin bror Adam ihjel. I anden generation følger vi brødrene Aaron og Caleb, der er sønner af Adam og den forførende, men dæmonisk ondsindede Cathy.

Story
In 1960, John Steinbeck set out in his pick-up truck with his dog, Charley, to rediscover and chronicle his native USA, from Maine to California. He felt that he might have lost touch with its sights, sounds and the essence of the American people. Moving through the woods and deserts, dirt tracks and highways to large cities and glorious wildernesses, Steinbeck observed - with remarkable honesty, insight and a humorous eye - the gamut of America and the people who inhabited it.

Story
The Wayward Bus travelled the back roads through the lush California countryside. Its driver was a man of the land - lusty, hot blooded, and uninhibited. On the bus was a girl who danced at stag parties, a travelling salesman strictly out for fun, a boy coming into manhood, and a college girl pursuing her secret, passionate quest. This is a story of crisis and passion, of love and longing.

John Steinbeck (1902-1968) was the winner of the 1962 Nobel Prize in Literature. The novella Of Mice and Men (1937) is the story of two migrant field workers in California during the Great Depression. Two friends, George Milton and the strong but simple-minded Lennie Small, share a dream of owning their own piece of land.

The themes include kindness, the bonds of friendship, and the cruelty of this world.

Jody Tiflin has the urge for rebellion, but he also wants to be loved. In The Red Pony, Jody begins to learn about adulthood - its pain, its responsibilities and its problems - through his acceptance of his father's gifts. First he is given a red pony, and later he is promised the colt of a bay mare. Yet both of these gifts bring him tragedy as well as joy, and Jody is taught not only the harsh lessons of life and death, but made painfully aware of the fallibility of adults.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.
