Today is a sad day. I learned that a man who I would have loved to be in my life passed on March 15. Here’s to you, Samuel Hamilton. 😢 #eastofeden #johnsteinbeck

A pen sketch of a red horse with quotes from John Steinbeck's The Red Pony. Quotes: "A red pony colt was looking at him out of the stall." "--why a little rain don't hurt a horse." "The red fearless eyes still looked at him, impersonal and unafraid and detached." "'Jody,' he he explained. 'the buzzard didn't kill the pony. Don't you know that?'" "The buzzard didn't kill the pony."
here is a page from my reading journal as I logged my most recent read! The Red Pony was a lot more emotionally resonant with me than I expected. Apologies for the spoilers! #booksky #journaling #classiclit #johnsteinbeck
"Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires."

Happy Birthday John Steinbeck. (RIP) (Yesterday) #HappyBirthdayJohnSteinbeck #JohnSteinbeck #Birthday #Legend #Legends
whole mythologies have risen around the writer’s portrait, sagas unfold on how to capture a writer’s likeness without unleashing the lurking narcissism — a theatre of glasses, spines of books standing in for depth.
meanwhile, john steinbeck: hold my beer. 🧡

Babam ömründe mektup yazmış değildir. Hep söylediği bir sözü vardır.
"Bir lafı birine ağzımla söyleyemiyorsam, demek o laf yazılacak kadar önemli değil" der.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1902, author #JohnSteinbeck was born in Salinas, CA. His work shines a light on the American obsessions with greed, militarism, and oppression. He understood our choice is between socialism and barbarism, and that the propaganda of the rich is killing us.
On this day, February 27th in 1902, John Steinbeck was born.
Readers are forever grateful that he chose to share his writing talent with us.

“He always considered himself a writer: not an author, not a novelist, not a playwright, not a scriptwriter, not a journalist — though at times in his life he was all of these things — but simply a writer.”
