East Of Eden - John Steinbeck

Epic - despite one dimensional female characters and abundant racial stereotyping this is a really good read.  The main focus of the story is the life of Adam Trask and the many parallels between his life and his biblical namesake's.  The longest book I have read in a long time and I never felt like giving up so this must be pretty good.  It raises lots of things about human nature to think about with out seeming tooooooooo pretentious.

7/10
