About the Author

John Steinbeck, the renowned American author born in 1902 in Salinas, California, is celebrated for his profound depictions of the human condition amid the struggles of the working class and the harsh realities of rural America. Drawing from his own experiences in the agricultural heartland, Steinbeck's narratives often explore themes of resilience, injustice, and the American Dream's elusive nature. His works, infused with empathy and social commentary, earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1962. Notable among his contributions is the poignant novella 'Of Mice and Men' (人鼠之间), which captures the fragile bond between two migrant workers during the Great Depression, highlighting themes of friendship and unfulfilled aspirations. Steinbeck's legacy endures as a voice for the marginalized, influencing generations of readers and writers worldwide.
