Di Cannery Row, California, Mack dan teman-temannya dianggap sampah masyarakat. Tapi, Doc-seorang ahli maritim-tidak menganggap mereka demikian. Doc selalu berbuat baik kepada mereka, sehingga Mack ingin sekali membalas budi. Namun, ketika niat baik Mack malah berubah menjadi bencana, masihkan Doc bersikap sama terhadap Mack dan yang lainnya? Di dalam premisnya yang sederhana, Cannery Row memiliki kisah memukau tentang kemanusiaan dan kebaikan. John Steinbeck meramu semuanya secara realistis, imajinatif, menggabungkan antara humor, simpati, dan nilai-nilai yang humanis. Berkat kemahirannya itu, John Steinbeck meraih Nobel Sastra di tahun 1962. Inilah karya John Steinbeck yang paling berpengaruh. Bahkan, Ocean View Avenue-tempat yang dijadikan lokasi novel ini-mengubah namanya menjadi Cannery Row sebagai penghormatan untuk buku ini. Dan, ketika diterjemahkan oleh Eka Kurniawan-sastrawan Indonesia pertama yang meraih nominasi di Man Booker Prize International-Cannery Row, tak pelak lagi, menjadi bacaan yang kaya serta penuh makna. Sebab, seperti kotanya sendiri, Cannery Row dipenuhi kebisingan, kebusukan, cahaya, nada, puisi, nostalgia, dan mimpi. [Mizan, Bentang Pustaka, Pengangguran, USA, Indonesia]

Steinbeck's tough yet charming portrait of people on the margins of society, dependant on one another for both physical and emotional survival Published in 1945, Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it is: both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. Drawing on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey, California, including longtime friend Ed Ricketts, Steinbeck interweaves the stories of Doc, Dora, Mack and his boys, Lee Chong, and the other characters in this world where only the fittest survive, to create a novel that is at once one of his most humorous and poignant works. In her introduction, Susan Shillinglaw shows how the novel expresses, both in style and theme, much that is essentially Steinbeck: “scientific detachment, empathy toward the lonely and depressed…and, at the darkest level…the terror of isolation and nothingness.” For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Cannery Row is a book with a minimally developed plot. Instead, it's an attempt to depict the atmosphere and characters of a particular place-the cannery neighbourhood of Monterey, California, which is home to a mix of the poor and individuals who prefer not to live "up the hill" in the more respectable part of town for a variety of reasons. Short vignettes that introduce us to different Row residents, the majority of whom are not directly related to the main story, regularly interrupt the main plot's pace. These short stories frequently make reference to extreme violence, including suicides, bodies, and the brutality of nature.The adventures of Mack and the guys, a gang of resourceful unemployed men who live in a renovated fish-meal shanty on the edge of an empty lot down on the Row, are the "narrative" of Cannery Row.

Cannery Row is a novel by American author John Steinbeck, published in 1945.It is set during the Great Depression in Monterey, California, on a street lined with sardine canneries that is known as Cannery Row. The story revolves around the people living there: Lee Chong, the local grocer; Doc, a marine biologist; and Mack, the leader of a group of derelict people. Cannery Row has a simple premise: Mack and his friends are to do something nice for their friend Doc, who has been good to them without asking for reward. Mack hits on the idea that they should throw a thank-you party, and the entire community quickly becomes involved. Unfortunately, the party rages out of control, and Doc's lab and home are ruined-and so is Doc's mood. In an effort to return to Doc's good graces, Mack and the boys decide to throw another party-but make it work this time. A procession of linked vignettes describes the denizens' lives on Cannery Row. These constitute subplots that unfold concurrently with the main plot. Steinbeck revisited these characters and this milieu nine years later in his novel Sweet Thursday.
