Notes
East of Eden by John Steinbeck is a sweeping novel set in California's Salinas Valley, exploring themes of good and evil through the intertwined lives of two families, the Trasks and the Hamiltons. The story spans several generations, focusing on the moral dilemmas and familial conflicts that shape the characters' destinies. At its core, the novel delves into the concept of "timshel," or the idea that people have the power to choose their own paths, despite their inherent nature or circumstances. Steinbeck's rich narrative and complex characters offer a profound examination of human nature and the struggle between destiny and free will.
