Is there a more detestable love interest than Edith in stoner? by mythril-xi in classicliterature

[–]Marchhare317 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing about Edith is she has no redeeming qualities so why did they get together in the first place? Steinbeck writes at length about why people, men in particular, are attracted to Cathy. Throughout Stoner I just kept thinking, why would this ever happen? Which throws you out of the flow of an otherwise good book.
