Steinbeck was one of the very few twentieth century US writers who jumped into the saddle, so to speak and direclty attacked and got involved with social problems such as the Depression( Grapes of Wrath). Mental retarded ranch hands(Of Mice and Men) and other gross topics rarely handled by other writers. He was considered left of c enter and was refused a commission in G-2 when he applied for one in World War II. Steinbeck acknowledges violence as a reality but rarely espouses it, unlike that hellk-for-leather type Hemingway. He is more socially oriented than his big rival. Both men of the pen were Nobel Laureates I would prefer Steinbeck.
