To a God Unknown Audiobook

" My favorite Steinbeck, per- per- period, as my mom would say. Read this book if you've ever even casually considered the mystical link between human life and the natural world. "

" My favorite Steinbeck book. It is a story about a mans obsession with his ideas, how he battles for them, and how ultimately he finds his peace in them. At finish I sat with my mouth agape for several minutes and a tear streaming down my cheek. But then that's par for the course with Steinbeck isn't it. "

" My all time favorite John Steinbeck.... or is it Tortilla Flat... who can decide? "

" Ambitious and interesting and that's about it. "

" I'm loving this book. A clash of traditions with a pantheistic love of nature taking the upper hand. "

" An interesting study of humanity, religion and charisma. Steinbeck has the extraordinary ability to create character's that are impossible to forget. This one is no exception. "

" A highly profound read with numerous themes finely interwoven. "

" Beautiful and poetic. Loved the imagery and mysticism. "

" one of my favorite books of all time. heartbreaking. book club read? "

" Not my favorite Steinbeck although it was interesting to read something he wrote very early in his career. It had all of his gorgeous descriptions of nature and artful development of character, but the narrative lacked the polish of his later works. "

" Too many symbolism for a modern taste. Stainbeck however is always such a poetic writer you get any fascinated by his descriptions and his fantastic look at simple things. "

" <3 steinbeck "

" John Steinbeck makes me nostalgic for places I've never been. I call it the Ray Bradbury effect. "

" Beautiful book. As you probably know Steinbeck won the the Nobel Prize and this book had to be at least partly responsible. A book about faith and beliefs, harsh reality and fantasy all together in spectacular writing! "

" This is a book about the unknowable which can only be sensed. "

" I was disappointed in this work. This is not one of his better work. You can see The Grapes of Wrath coming. He would later master the suffering of the human condition. "

" I like this, but it seems incomplete. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to reread the story of Orestes to make more sense of this. "

" The ending!!! Ah! Would the characters really do that? "

" I'm now reading this one again, six years later. If anyone gave this book less than 5 stars then you didn't understand it. Read it again, and again, and again... "
