Bessie
As an elderly woman battling loneliness and isolation, Bessie Bascove spent the rest of her life reflecting on memories of times gone by, beginning with stories she heard as a child, and continuing on to a new and unfamiliar life in America. In her old age, while still traumatized after so many years, Bessie recalls living through the tragic events she witnessed during the 1905 Odessa pogrom that brought her here. It was her hope that upon her passing, her life and the lives and memories of those she cherished would not be forgotten. This is her story.

Collected Works of John Steinbeck
John Ernst Steinbeck Jr. has been called "a giant of American letters”. His magnum opus ‘The Grapes of Wrath’ (1939), which epitomises the harrowing events of the Clutch Plague era, stirred widespread sympathy for the plight of migrant workers. Many of Steinbeck's works are set in the Salinas Valley of his childhood and they frequently explore themes of fate and the injustices suffered by their everyman protagonists. Fashioned with rich symbolic structures, they convey archetypal qualities in enduring characters, winning for Steinbeck the 1962 Nobel Prize for Literature. The major works of Steinbeck are Of Mice and Men, East of Eden, The Grapes of Wrath.
Poems from My Heart
This book contains a collection of poems, many of them written as encouragement to family and friends throughout the years. Some are strictly wishes to the recipient, others reflect her faith and her desire to praise God for the rich blessings received in this journey we call “life.” The pencil sketches are the artistry of Joy Lillie, a sister of the author. Joy retired from teaching after 25 years. Art has always been an important facit of her life.
A Life in Letters
John Steinbeck was a prolific correspondent, and this collection of letters to friends, family, his editor and a circle of public figures gives an insight into the raw creative processes of one of the most naturally-gifted and hard-working writing minds of this century.
