The beginning of the book has commentary from the characters of “Cannery Row,” a superb book by John Steinbeck.

It was surreal reading this fictional commentary.

It makes me want to read “Cannery Row” over again. I read it more than two decades ago!

I’m a sucker for Steinbeck. The thought of re-reading all of the books I’ve read of his, plus the ones I haven’t, is most enticing!
