Heavy with symbolism, Steinbeck manages to create a story that does an excellent job of exploring gender roles in the early 1900's. Although containing beautiful, effective language and description, I, personally, did not particularly enjoy the story.
I found this story to be of particular interest to me. The theme was terrific, the description beatiful, and the symbolism amazing. I knew I liked Steinbeck's work, but I think I'll be reading more of his work.
