John Steinbeck's iconic novel set during the Great Depression in Monterey, California, on a street lined with sardine canneries that is known as Cannery Row. The story revolves around the people living there: Lee Chong, the local grocer; Doc, a marine biologist; and Mack, the leader of a group of derelict people. A film version was released in 1982, starring Nick Nolte and Debra Winger. (Goldstone & Payne A22 b)
