Elaine Steinbeck

John Steinbeck was a prolific correspondent, and this collection of letters to friends, family, his editor and a circle of public figures gives an insight into the raw creative processes of one of the most naturally-gifted and hard-working writing minds of this century.

A Life in Letters

This interdisciplinary collection of essays explores in-depth a topic previously neglected by scholars: John Steinbeck's early continuing preoccupation with ecology and marine biology and the effect of that interest on his writings. Written by scholars from various disciplines, the essays offer a dynamic contribution to the study of John Steinbeck by considering his writings from an environmental perspective. They reveal Steinbeck as a prophet that was ahead of his time and supremely relevant to our own.
