There’s an annotated version.

To be "easy to read" you shouldn't need a guide...

Sure, but the annotations make it easy. And there’s nothing wrong with having a little help.

I find East of Eden more readable than Grapes of Wrath but otherwise agree. Just re read Rebecca a year or two back and was reminded of how much I like it
