内容説明

This work contains a collection of essays that explore Steinbeck's preoccupation with the story of Cain and Abel. It addresses the issue of how, for Steinbeck, the story of sibling rivalry reflects a deeper, typically American confusion over whether to choose brotherhood over self-satisfaction.
