Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A Penguin ClassicFirst published in 1938, this volume of stories collected with the encouragement of his longtime editor Pascal Covici serves as a wonderful introduction to the work of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck.

Included here are the O. Henry Prize-winning story 'The Murder'; 'The Chrysanthemums,' perhaps Steinbeck's most challenging story, both personally and artistically; 'Flight,' 'The Snake,' 'The White Quail,' and the classic tales of 'The Red Pony.'
