Produktbeschreibung
The American classic 'East of Eden', which would be taken to the screen in an unforgettable 1955 movie directed by Elia Kazan and starring James Dean, follows two families between the American Civil War and World War One, in the Californian valley of Salinas. After witnessing the epic arrival of the Hamiltons at California, Nobel laureate Steinbeck takes us into the suffocating world of the Trasks, in which Adam, a strict man, tries to raise his sons Aron and Cal after being abandoned by his wife, whose name is banished from the house. Cal, restless and always unhappy, cannot bear the weight of the silence over his mother, whose character he thinks he's inherited. Adam's rejection of Cal pushes him to the most provocative rebellion, and damns him to always remain East of Eden.
