Title: Excellent writing but 100 pages too many
Product review: Everyone knows it is a classic and it is well written. The strong point of this book is its characters, formidably described and that generate great empathy and in some cases horror. But I do think that Steinbeck, for reasons unknown to me, spends some time describing situations in which philosophical and ethical matters are discussed and I found these to be rather moralizing and totally unnecessary.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
