jesskayho: bookmania: “East of Eden” by John Steinbeck. Set in the rich farmland of Salinas Valley, California, this powerful, often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families – the Trasks and the Hamiltons – whose generations helplessly re-enact the fall of Adam and Eve and the poisonous rivalry of Cain and Abel. Here Steinbeck created some of his most memorable characters and explored his most enduring themes: the mystery of identity, the inexplicability of love and the murderous consequences of love’s absence I will read this after I finish the pile of books waiting for me on my desk (: lolol I did my senior research paper on this. It’s hard to get through, but it’s a good book.
