Welcome to Litsy!

This is the first Steinbeck novel I read and I became a fan immediately. The Winter of Our Discontent has some of the best character development I've seen in a story, and Steinbeck creates tension and release beautifully. This book displays the talent that has made Steinbeck one of the greats.

"Farewell has a sweet sound of reluctance. Good-by is short and final, a word with teeth sharp to bite through the string that ties past to the future."

"I shall revenge myself in the cruelest way you can imagine. I shall forget it."
