The Winter of Our Discontent - Steinbeck

just starting this book...curious to see what happens to Ethan after he gets off his high horse and takes a few risks. - TK

Ethan Hawley works as a clerk in the grocery store owned by an Italian immigrant. His wife is restless, and his teenaged children are hungry for the tantalizing material comforts he cannot provide. Then one day, in a moment of moral crisis, Ethan decides to take a holiday from his own scrupulous standards.
