Cannery Row Days: Travels with Charley
Published in 1962, Travels with Charley is a delightful account of Steinbeck’s loop around America in 1960 with his beloved poodle, Charley. It's also Steinbeck’s searing account of America’s lapses and challenges. Join Steinbeck scholar Susan Shillinglaw as we open this year’s “Cannery Row Days” with consideration of where this book’s place in Steinbeck’s long career assessing America and American values and landscapes.
