The masterpiece of Steinbeck's later years--at once a family saga and a modern retelling of the Book of Genesis--now a Netflix limited series, written and executive produced by Zoe Kazan, starring Florence Pugh In his journal, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck called East of Eden "the first book," and indeed it has the primordial power and simplicity of myth.
