Cannery Row

Unburdened by the material necessities of the more fortunate, the denizens of Cannery Row discover rewards unknown in more traditional society. Steinbeck's 1945 condemnation of the attitudes toward the conditions endured by California migrant workers is a sequel to his novel on the same subject, SWEET THURSDAY--both more light-hearted than his masterpiece, THE GRAPES OF WRATH.
