7) Cannery Row by John Steinbeck I’m not sure whether this was intentional or not, but for the last few years I’ve read at least one book written by a Nobel Prize winning author. This novel I found out about from watching British chef Rick Stein in his series Road to Mexico when he visits Cannery Row in Monterey California. Set in the Depression era, it tells the story of life through the eyes of a group of people. Initially I thought that it was about the sardine canneries which dotted the landscape along the Monterey coast, but I was mistaken. While enjoyable it took a while to really get into it as it doesn’t really ‘flow’ like I normally would think a story would.
