grammar - Are there other grammatical ways to say, "I'm reading a novel of Steinbeck's"?

I would like to ask why the following sentence is only possible according to grammatical rules:




I'm reading a novel of Steinbeck's





What's wrong with "I'm reading a novel of Steinbeck" or "I'm reading Steinbeck's novel"?
