Book review: The White Quail

The White Quail was written by John Steinbeck. He often wrote about rich natures in his works and his special sense of value. The heroine in this story also have special sense of value about her garden.

The heroine think '' garden is myself''. Therefore, she treat it very carefully and she let his hasband so. He tried to do so hard because he love her so much. However, her behaviors were not ordinary, so he couldn't stand finally.

He killed a white quail secretly for his wife. It was the quail which his wife said ''that is like myself.'' I think he was limit of his patient. Basides, he want to live her happily together. I felt that he was a sorry lot.

I don't know their life after that, but I hope that they live together happily.
