\nBook Description:

Published in 1945\, Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it i s: both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. Drawing on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey\, California\, Steinbeck interweaves the stories of Doc\, Henri\, Mack and his boys\, an d the other characters in this world where only the fittest survive\, to c reate a novel that is at once one of his most humorous and most poignant w orks.
