"Provided that nothing like useful knowledge could be gained from them, provided they were all story and no reflection, she had never any objection to books at all."-- Austen on Northanger Abbey's Catherine Morland
Go for the Steinbeck. It's so much more than a depressing tome.
ReplyDeleteMy experiences with Steinbeck have been, shall we say, disappointing, so I'd say go with Roth. He's one of my favorite living writers.
