Dong, Hengxun. Lun Sitanbeike de xing yu shu [ID D30673].
The greatest problem with Steinbeck, according to Dong, is that he was not at all outstanding in literary factors such as form, stylistic devices, and characterization. Even though his 'dramatic fiction' was somewhat original in conception, the lack of depth in the content was a serious flaw. Dong also criticized Steinbeck for his changes in viewpoint, and particularly for his relationship with the political VIPs in the government after the Second World War, and Dong supports his argument with a quotation from Steinbeck's son about his father's attitude toward the Vietnam War and also with Steinbeck's own comment : "Compared with the 30s, it is more difficult to say who are the underdogs in the 50s and 60s".
