Publisher Description
In Monterey, on the California Coast, Sweet Thursday is what they call the day after Lousy Wednesday, which is one of those days that's just naturally bad. Returning to the scene of CANNERY ROW, the weedy lots, junk heaps and flop houses of Monterey, Steinbeck once again brings to life the denizens of a netherworld of laughter and tears. The book is in many ways a statement about Steinbeck's greatest theme: the common bonds of humanity and love which make goodness and happiness possible.

Sweet Thursday
What a beauty! Just read it!!!!
Uplifting
For my money, the best book ever written. Uplifting, full of character with a wonderful philosophical streak running through it. A beautiful and touching exploration of the different ways we look for happiness and fulfilment. Every other line is worth highlighting.
