Truly one of the great American writers of all time. I was recommended to read Travels with Charly when on a touring holiday of the USA as it would be a backdrop to my holiday. It was a splendid novel and helped me remember my holiday when I read it later.
Some of his novels (Of Mice and Men for example) are classics and are great reads, classics of fiction. Also, his books have been made into films as well such as East of Eden.
John Steinbeck is for everyone, not just Americans, I always find his writing style a breath of fresh air. You must read at least one (or three) Steinbecks.
