Meet  the gamblers, whores, drunks, bums and artists of Cannery Row in  Monterey, California, during the Great Depression. They want to throw a  party for their friend Doc, so Mack and the boys set about, in their own  inimitable way, recruiting everyone in the neighbourhood to the cause.  But along the way they can't help but get involved in a little mischief  and misadventure. It wouldn't be Cannery Row if it was otherwise, now  would it?Packed with a ramshackle joi de vivre, Cannery Row is Steinback's high-spirited tribute to his native California.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Uninhibited, bawdy, compassionate, inquisitive, deeply intelligent'  Daily Telegraph\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Steinbeck","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57390553366853,"sku":"9780141185088","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/3721\/6069\/files\/9780141185088.jpg?v=1773511992","url":"https:\/\/stripyduckbookshopcafe.co.uk\/products\/9780141185088","provider":"The Stripy Duck Bookshop Café","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
