As a native son of Vancity and lifelong fan of Steinbeck, I would read this novelisation!

Have you ever read Cloudstreet by Tim Winton? It does for Australia what EoE and GoW did for USA. Might be worth a read to have a picture of another similar-but-different approach for telling these kinds for stories.

Good stuff! I grew up in North Vancouver and in the 70s had jobs in and around the DTES, one the old Army and Navy Department Store. Memories, of Woodwards, The Smiling Buddha, the Only Seafood Cafe, coming back.
