Here's #Catholic #World's #Review of John #Steinbeck's last #Novel:
The #Winter of Our #Discontent (1961):

It is #Regrettable that the #Author... invested the #Book w/ #MumboJumbo & #HocusPocus involving a #Talisman, a #Female #Witch, & #Ambiguous #Religious #Significance that results in a #Contrived, #Pretentious #Story...
-
The #Title is from #Shakespeare's #RichardIII:

"Now is the winter of our discontent
Made #Glorious #Summer by this sun [or son] of #York."

Closeup of Steinbeck's book cover for The Winter of Our Discontent. The cover shows a blue sky over Sag Harbor. 
The Winter of Our Discontent is John Steinbeck's last novel and the title is taken from the first two lines of William Shakespeare's Richard III: "Now is the winter of our discontent / Made glorious summer by this sun [or son] of York". 
This is Steinbeck's only book set on the East Coast in Sag Harbor, New York.
