Cannery Row written by John Steinbeck has an abundance of character through the book, which makes it no picnic finding out who ties Cannery Row together. Doc is the main focus throughout the book; He is the one everyone wants to repay for being selfless when anyone is in need . Most would consider him the most important character in the book, but I disagree. The most captivating character in my opinion is Mack. He is the one no one would ever consider being the rock of Cannery Row. He in many ways is a bad example , but Steinbeck in a subtle way captures is hidden intelligence .
