    Guided Notes for East of Eden

    Pick a quote from the first section and explain why the author John Steinbeck might have
    included this detail for the setting:

    Who is Adam Trask? What do we know about his family and ancestry? How would you describe
    his relationship with his father?

    How does Charles get his scar? What does he say about it? What does the scar symbolize?

    What do Cathy and Charles have in common?


    Use the following chart to contrast the characters of Charles and Adam Trask:

    Character Their Perspective on Life How They View or Treat Cathy

    That had been the only time in her life she had lost control of a
    situation. She determined never to let it happen again.
    Page 148 before section 5

    What does the narrator have to say about Cathys persona? What type of evil traits does Cathy
    have? What does her future look like with Adam?
