Set in the rich farmland of California's Salinas Valley, this sprawling and often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families.
Steinbeck uses the length to tell a multigenerational story that feels biblical in scale. You watch families rise and fall in the Salinas Valley over the course of decades. The audiobook captures the slow, dusty rhythm of California farm life. It is a massive, emotional investment that pays off with one of the best endings in literature.
