The Moon is Down by John Steinbeck


Rating 3/5

John Steinbeck is one of my favorite authors, however, I didn't like this book as much as the others that I read. It apparently is his debut novel, but is so much different from his other books. The style of The Moon is Down mimicked that of Hemingway, I believe. It was vague and the dialogue repetitive. I also am not a fan of war books. The novel takes place in Europe during a war. A small town is taken over by soldiers and slowly they begin to rebel
