This is a book about men. Lonely men. Working men. Good men. Imperfect men. Their talk (rough and gritty), hopes (working their own land), recreation (horseshoes, cards and whoring), dreams (freedom from wandering), character (each with strengths and weaknesses, thrown together) work (farming and ranching), challenges (lack of family/ relationship), and failings (the dark anger that lurks under the surface of even the innocent and seemingly gentle man). There is but one character that is a woman (she referred to as "Curly's wife"), and there is the whore house of unnamed 'girls'. Such is the setting for Steinbeck's spartan novel. A short book that leaves you twisted up. Don't let Steinbeck's brevity fool you, this story will stick. The fantastic writing draws you into the setting, and sets in slow motion a tragedy that unravels in 3 days. You know it is coming, but you cannot turn away. The feeling of inevitable demise carries you along through the sentences, paragraphs and chapters, until it is done. Over. And you are left with the lump in the stomach, pondering a world that is broken and in need of true hope. This passage from Ecclesiastes 7 comes to mind, "2 It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for this is the end of all mankind, and the living will lay it to heart. 3 Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of face the heart is made glad. 4 The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth." I suppose it is a wise book. Certainly a work that deserves to bear the name, "classic". But it is a difficult read that ends without hope, and honestly (fool that I my be), I prefer to be inspired instead of warned.
