Sobre este artículo
NY, Armed Services Editions, n.d. (1943), first edition thus, wrappers. Softcover.. No. A-9, just the ninth title issued in this important series, issued by the Council on Books in Wartime, designed to fit the pocket of a World War II American GI, this book wasn't in the Adrian Goldstone collection, cited as Goldstone & Payne A4k via the University of Texas copy (and giving a c.1944 date), with a note about the author at the end, not recorded by Morrow, this is one of the more difficult ASE titles. Very good.
Sinopsis
Tortilla Flat (1935) is an early Steinbeck novel set in Monterey, California. The book portrays with great sympathy and humour a group of paisanos (fellows/countrymen), denouncing society by enjoying life and wine in the idyllic days after the end of the Great War and preceding U.S. prohibition. Tortilla Flat was made into a film in 1942. Steinbeck would later return to the some of the panhandling locals of Monterey (though not the Spanish paisanos of the Flat) in his novel Cannery Row (1945).
