Best writer ever. Period.
Some of Steinbeck's most well known novels are: East of Eden; Grapes of Wrath; Of Mice and Men; The Winter of our Discontent; In Dubious Battle; and several others.
Steinbeck was fond of writing about the place he grew up, Salinas, CA, and the people who suffered during the Depression. Known for his ambiguous endings, Steinbeck relied on his reader to infer information in order to reach a conclusion about the novels' endings.
