Of Mice and Men

Of Mice and Men by Steinbeck

They are an unlikely pair: George is "small and quick and dark of face"; Lenny, a man of tremondous size, has the mind of a young child. Yet they have formed a "family," clingling together in the face of lonliness and alienation. Laborers in California's dusty vegetable fields, they hustle work when they can, living a hand-to-mouth existence. For George and Lennie have a plan: to own an acre of land and a shack they can call their own. When they land jobs on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, the fulfillment of their dream seems to be within their grasp. But even George cannot guard Lennie from the provocations of a flirtatious woman, nor predict the consequences of Lennie's unswerving obedience to the things George taught him.A
