The Pastures of Heaven by John Steinbeck (1963)

A wonderful copy of Steinbeck's The Pastures of Heaven. This is a story cycle of twelve interconnected short stories, all set in a valley in Monterey, California. These stories are written in the signature Steinbeck style, with humour and poignancy and a sympathy for the downtrodden and the unfortunate. Running through the stories is the theme of the demands to confirm to society's norms and the pain often caused when trying to please others.
