Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Let's look at The Chrysanthemums by John Steinbeck. A very famous work that deals with genders and their roles in society. The heavy usage of symbols is quite strong in this too. We'll see the usage of yellow chrysanthemums and their meaning of scorned love and white has a different meaning as well. Let's talk about it today!
