While symbolic treatment of the biblical Cain and Abel story is most evident in Steinbeck's East of Eden , these 23 contributions also explore various aspects of the theme as it arises in other works such as Grapes of Wrath (Tom Joad sentenced to wander the earth), Of Mice and Men (George's mercy killing of Lenny), and other works.
