İmza

John Ernst Steinbeck Jr (/ˈstaɪnbɛk/; 27 Şubat 1902 – 20 Aralık 1968) Amerikalı yazar. 1962 Nobel Edebiyat Ödülü'nü "sempatik mizah ve keskin toplumsal algıyı oluştururken birleştiren gerçekçi ve yaratıcı yazıları için" kazandı. “Amerikan edebiyat devi” olarak adlandırıldı ve eserlerinin çoğu Batı edebiyatı klasikleri olarak kabul edildi.

Yazma kariyeri boyunca, 16 roman, kurgusal olmayan altı kitap ve iki kısa öykü koleksiyonu olmak üzere 27 kitap yazdı. Yaygın çizgi romanları olan Tortilla Flat (1935) ve Cannery Row (1945), çok nesli Doğu Cennet destanı (1952) ve Fareler ve Erkekler (1937) ve The Red Pony (1937) romanları ile ünlüdür. Pulitzer Ödüllü Gazap Üzümleri (1939), Steinbeck'in başyapıtı ve Amerikan edebiyat kanonunun bir parçası olarak kabul edilir. Yayınlandıktan sonraki ilk 75 yılda 14 milyon kopya sattı.

Steinbeck'in çalışmalarının çoğu, Kaliforniya'nın merkezinde, özellikle Salinas Vadisi ve California Kıyıları Bölgesi'nde yer almaktadır. Eserlerinde sık sık kader ve adaletsizlik temalarını araştırdı.
