From the Editors
When feeble-minded Lenny Small and his protector George Milton arrive to work on a ranch in the Salinas Valley of California, they dream of the day when they can own their own farm. But when Lenny accidentially kills the ranch owner's daughter-in-law, their lives are changed forever.


The writing flows easily in this well written book. It is a very short book and I didn't want it to end as I wanted to read more about the characters. East of Eden is still my favourite Steinbeck book but this is a close second.
