À propos de cet audio

 Steinbeck’s tough yet charming portrait of people on the margins of society, dependent on one another for both physical and emotional survivalPublished in 1945, Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it is: both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. Drawing on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey, California, Steinbeck interweaves the stories of Doc, Henri, Mack and his boys, and the other characters in this world where only the fittest survive, to create a novel that is at once one of his most humorous and most poignant works.

Praise for Penguin Drop Caps:

"[Penguin Drop Caps] convey a sense of nostalgia for the tactility and aesthetic power of a physical book and for a centuries-old tradition of beautiful lettering."
—Fast Company

“Vibrant, minimalist new typographic covers…. Bonus points for the heartening gender balance of the initial selections.”
—Maria Popova, Brain Pickings

"The Penguin Drop Caps series is a great example of the power of design. Why buy these particular classics when there are less expensive, even free editions of Great Expectations? Because they’re beautiful objects. Paul Buckley and Jessica Hische’s fresh approach to the literary classics reduces the design down to typography and color. Each cover is foil-stamped with a cleverly illustrated letterform that reveals an element of the story. Jane Austen’s A (Pride and Prejudice) is formed by opulent peacock feathers and Charlotte Bronte’s B (Jane Eyre) is surrounded by flames. The complete set forms a rainbow spectrum prettier than anything else on your bookshelf."
—Rex Bonomelli, The New York Times

"Drool-inducing."
—Flavorwire

"Classic reads in stunning covers—your book club will be dying."
—Redbook

This excellent reading brings the whole world of Cannery Row to life - characters are perfectly distinct without being all “voicy” (if that makes any sense).

Cannery Row comes alive

I remember this book, or perhaps it was the movie, from long ago, but the details had faded. I appreciated the audiobook version, very good narration. Great character development, to paint the good intent behind the actions of the protagonists, who might otherwise be written off, given how things always went wrong. Real people, of the time, not shrouded in romance. Steinbeck is a genius.

Great

Steinbeck is a master of his craft. Like most of his works, this one starts slow but you will be glad to have started reading. Humor, drama, and a dose of philosophy, I recommend this to everyone and especially those who have had the pleasure of visiting Cannery Row these days.

I aspire to be Doc, but every day I get closer to being like Mac..
