Each of these pleasant interconnected stories is dedicated to a family living in a fertile valley on the outskirts of Monterey, California, and the impact a particular family has on all others. Steinbeck tackles two important literary traditions here: American naturalism, with its focus on the conflict between natural instincts and the demand to conform to society's rules, and the short story cycle. The setting takes place in the heart of "Steinbeck country," in the rich valleys of California.
