Four scenes, four people: the husband who yearns for a son, not suspecting his own sterility; the wife who is unfaithful with another man so that she may give to her husband the child he longs for; the friend; and the outsider. Written as a "play-novelette" (that ist, a play in the form of a novel, or a short novel that can be played by speaking ist dialogue), Burning Bright tells a story that could happen anywhere, at any time - a universal tale shorn of all ornamentation, dealing only with elemental human needs and passions.

I've just found Burning Bright by John Steinbeck outside of St. Mary's hospital. Excited to give it a read and release it back into the wild.
