I don't understand what any of that means (and I'm interested). His son can negotiate higher royalty rates than what? How often do they renegotiate the rates? Publishers would trip over themselves to land what contract? Not one with higher royalty rates, certainly? You mean a Steinbeck contract? Penguin has no exclusive?
