"Steinbeck's Pulitzer Prize-winning epic of the Great Depression chronicles the Dust Bowl migration of the 1930s and tells the story of one Oklahoma farm family the Joads-driven from their homestead and forced to travel west to the promised land of California. Out of their trials and their repeated collisions against the hard realities of an America divided into Haves and Have-Nots evolves a drama that is intensely human yet majestic in its scale and moral vision elemental yet plainspoken tragic but ultimately stirring in its human dignity. A portrait of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless of one man's fierce reaction to injustice and of one woman's stoical strength the novel captures the horrors of the Great Depression and probes into the very nature of equality and justice in America." .

A fine copy in the original color pictorial dust jacket.<br /> <br /> A beautifully produced illustrated edition of Tortilla Flat one of John Steinbeck's earliest and most enduring works. <br /> <br /> First published in 1935 Tortilla Flat marked Steinbeck's breakthrough introducing the loosely connected adventures of Danny and his companions - paisanos living on the margins of society in Monterey California. Blending humor pathos and a gently ironic narrative voice the work established many of the thematic concerns - friendship poverty and moral ambiguity - that would define Steinbeck's later masterpieces.<br /> <br /> Peggy Worthington's illustrations created specifically for this edition bring a warm painterly interpretation to Steinbeck's world capturing both the rustic charm and underlying poignancy of the paisanos' lives. Her use of color and composition lends the volume a distinctive visual identity making this edition one of the most appealing mid-century illustrated Steinbeck publications.<br /> <br /> Issued in an attractive format with mounted cover illustration and pictorial endpapers this 1947 edition represents the first fully illustrated presentation of the text and remains highly sought after in fine condition with the dust jacket intact.<br /> <br /> A particularly fresh and desirable copy of an American classic - uniting Steinbeck's breakthrough novel with a sympathetic and accomplished illustrative program.<br /> <br /> Goldstone & Payne A4a.
