Set in the rich farmland of California’s Salinas Valley, this sprawling and often brutal novel follows the intertwined destinies of two families—the Trasks and the Hamiltons—whose generations helplessly reenact the fall of Adam and Eve and the poisonous rivalry of Cain and Abel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe masterpiece of Steinbeck’s later years, \u003ci\u003eEast of Eden\u003c\/i\u003e is a work in which Steinbeck created his most mesmerizing characters and explored his most enduring themes: the mystery of identity, the inexplicability of love, and the murderous consequences of love's absence. Adapted for the 1955 film directed by Elia Kazan introducing James Dean and read by thousands as the book that brought Oprah’s Book Club back, \u003ci\u003eEast of Eden\u003c\/i\u003e has remained vitally present in American culture for over half a century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis edition features an introduction by David Wyatt.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41992987377699,"sku":null,"price":499.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/3607\/9395\/files\/A1b_gUVcmqL._SL1500.jpg?v=1772803625","url":"https:\/\/champaca.in\/products\/east-of-eden","provider":"Champaca Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
