John Steinbeck And The Critics

  • Publication Details

    Book, Camden House, 2000
  • Description

    This work by a prominent Steinbeck scholar begins with a study of the novelist’s early celebrity in the 1930s and 1940s. Ditsky shows that by the late 1940s there was some falling off in Steinbeck’s critical reputation, and yet that is also the period in which the ‘first generation’ of Steinbeck critics did their first work: seminal commentary by Peter Lisca, Warren French, and Joseph Fontenrose.
