DESCRIPTION:Visit the Center for Steinbeck Studies\, MLK Library 5th Floor\
 , for a reading by SJSU Professor Emerita Susan Shillinglaw from her new b
 ook Steinbeck's Landscapes: Where Story Meets Place\, published by Timber 
 Press/Hachette.\n\nSteinbeck’s Landscapes is the first major work to foc
 us on Steinbeck as a predominantly environmental writer. It highlights the
  places that the Nobel Prize–winning author cherished and explored throu
 ghout his life and examines the iconic stories they inspired. We learn how
  the Salinas Valley of his youth shaped East of Eden\; how\, in Cannery Ro
 w\, the improbable diversity of human life washed together in a tight comm
 unity not unlike a Monterey tidepool\; and how\, in The Grapes of Wrath\, 
 various human connections to land and soil inform every page of Steinbeck
 ’s monumental novel.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.
