Date: April 6th, 2026 9:14 AM Author: Gay vivacious orchestra pit queen of the night It's great
Although I usually don't read that much but I was traveling for Easter so I had a lot of airport/airplane time to just crank through books
Also I read short stories way more than I read novels (the other two books were short story collections) so even if the books end up around similar length it's 'easier' somehow to get through a book in one sitting if it's actually not just one long story |

Date: April 7th, 2026 11:06 AM Author: supple jet-lagged idea he suggested titca
East of Eden is a classic and it's odd to me that it's usually not mentioned as Steinbeck's top work.
cannery row is pretty good too, it's less didactic than Grapes of Wrath or Mice & Men; although (maybe as a result) it suffers somewhat from not really having a "point".
I thought the pearl sucked.
Log from the Sea of cortez *really* sucked. |
|
Date: April 7th, 2026 11:09 AM Author: Gay vivacious orchestra pit queen of the night I've never heard anyone with anything good to say about The Pearl
Grapes of Wrath is didactic as hell but Steinbeck's a strong enough writer that it's still good (kind of like Dickens); the bit where he talks about all the human effort that goes into creating modern agriculture and bumper crops that then have to be destroyed because they aren't profitable is a more eloquent argument for Marxist economic thought than any number of DSA freaks |

Date: April 7th, 2026 11:36 AM Author: Grizzly Whorehouse Rigor I haven't read The Perl since I was really young but the concept seems underwhelming even for a short novel/novella whatever that thing is. Grapes of Wrath is good, but the didactic machinery is too central. The intercalary chapters especially its like the book is announcing itself that its about suffering, even though they are great set-pieces. East of Eden is the best novel of his and its not even close imo. It can be a bit digressive and extra at times but it somehow still holds together. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5854084&forum_id=2...id.#49800174) |
|
Date: April 7th, 2026 11:39 AM Author: Gay vivacious orchestra pit queen of the night The set piece chapters are great imo but I see what you’re saying
The used car lot and roadside diner bits are some of my favorites (also the xo box turtle and the Marxist “capitalism hamstrings its own productive capacity” chapter) |

Date: April 7th, 2026 11:50 AM Author: Grizzly Whorehouse Rigor Yeah that's Jim Casy. His entire arc is about the inseparability of spiritual ecstasy and carnal energy. His whole "maybe the Holy Spirit is just people, all of us together" speech is essentially him working out a pantheist framework that dissolves the sacred/profane distinction that made him feel guilty. The "fearful pounding" bit is line is quietly hilarious the way its delivered. King James biblical cadence applied to pussy pounding.

Date: April 7th, 2026 11:57 AM Author: Gay vivacious orchestra pit queen of the night Casy did get on my nerves; I get what his character is supposed to be and mean but it felt a bit on the nose (moreso than the communist stuff) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5854084&forum_id=2...id.#49800236) |

Date: April 7th, 2026 11:57 AM Author: Grizzly Whorehouse Rigor Casy pounding his wife after the sermon is more theologically complex than half the explicit argument in the book though IMHO (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5854084&forum_id=2...id.#49800238) |
