The Red Pony

by John Steinbeck


1963, Bantam Pathfinder


Steinbeck's beautiful classic, The Red Pony, is a timeless tale of a young boy's coming of age and his initiation into manhood. During the course of four short stories dealing with the Tiflin family and with Jody Tiflin, in particular, we see how life and experience are the greatest teachers.


In this short but moving narrative, Jody learns to accept responsibility and to face the harsher truths of life, including death.
