Tortilla Flat

Magic Square Challenge 2018 - #1 - A Book with a Food in the Title

A fable-like string of tales about a group of paisanos who are the cause of their own problems. It's both comical and tragic, often within the same situations - half the time I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I think this is the book that marks Steinbeck's bloom as a talented literary author.

Adopting the structure and themes of the Arthurian legend, Steinbeck created a "Camelot" on a shabby hillside above Monterey on the California coast and peopled it with a colorful band of knights. As Steinbeck chronicles their thoughts and emotions, temptations and lusts, he spins a tale as compelling, and ultimately as touched by sorrow, as the famous legends of the Round Table.
