Steinbeck has been described as having “a keen social perception”. What do you think this means?

Having a keen sense of social perception means that Steinbeck has good social sense. In other words, it means he is able to understand and have a great perceptive ability of other people.

Social perception is the social trait of a person that enables one to understand other people in the social circle. This perspective aspect allows a person to make judgments or impressions about others in their social world.

When a person has a keen sense of social perception, it makes it easier and possible for him to have a better insight and impression of the others around them. And this is exactly what Steinbeck has, and infused in his characters.

Explanation:

He has a very good idea of how people interact with each other. He knows what they will do when confronted with something that's pretty awful like war, or how they will react with the love they feel when a child is born if they love each other.

He understands clearly what a society will do threatened or what a union will do when rewarded with a fair settlement or what they will do if it is not a fair settlement.

He understands the good and the evil in everyone. His answers are not trivial nor are his observations ones that favor one side of an argument or another unless he is trying to uncover a social wrong.
