Title: Authors should retire too
Review: WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!Steinbeck has reinvented himself in this work as a pretentious bore. Was this the man who wrote East of Eden? Hardly seems possible.This Steinbeck comes across as a pseudo intellectual who names his truck after Don Quixote's horse seems unaware that the New York license plates on the truck will influence what people think of him.He spends time between boring observations inserting a combination of Hemingway toughness and sophomoric intellectual "name dropping".I am sorry after 100 pages I quit...most of his insights were wrong and the few that were good weren't worth the pain.
