John Steinbeck

John Steinbeck is the author of the book me and my class have been reading; "Of Mice and Men". He was born the 27th of february, 1902, in Salinas - California. He's known as one of the leading American writers in the 20th century. Steinbeck was married three times in his life, and his second marriage resulted in two kids.
Regarding his written works, the books that's worth mentioning is The Grapes of Wrath, Of Mice and Men, The Moon Is Down and Travels With Charley: In Search of America. Some of these works are based upon Steinbecks view of life, as he grew up, and fiction, of course. An example is "Of Mice and Men, where he includes stories about Salinas, his childhood home! Rather , interesting, if you ask me.
