COMING THIS AUTUMN: A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES STARRING FLORENCE PUGH
The magnum opus of a giant of American literature, East of Eden is an epic, unforgettable family saga of blood ties and betrayal
Set in the rich farmland of the Salinas Valley, California, this powerful, often brutal novel, follows the interwined destinies of two families - the Trasks and the Hamiltons - whose generations hopelessly 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 indentity; the inexplicability of love, and the murderous consequences of love's absence.
