DESCRIBE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GEORGE AND LENNIE AS IT COMES ACROSS IN THE WAY THEY SPEAK
The novel “Of Mice and Men” was written by John Steinbeck in 1937. He wrote the novel to illustrate the pain and misery of the migrant workers during the Great Depression in America. The novel also illustrated the difficulty for ordinary people to reach the American Dream. Steinbeck represents the relationship between George and Lennie, who are the main characters, in different ways. The word “relationship” is described in the dictionary “as the way inwhich two or more groups or people behave towards each other.”
The friendship between George and Lennie is represented both through the spoken relationship and body language. This is shown in the constant different behaviours Lennie has towards George. Throughout the novel, this becomes more and more visible by portraying Lennie of being simple minded and “like a kid.” Lennie is incapable of surviving on his own and needs George to look after him. One realises that Lennie and George become dependent on each other. This is because the one needs the other to survive.
George is instantly interpreted as of being the leader, or parent role towards Lennie. This can be quickly interpreted when George says : “ Lennie! “ “Lennie for God’ sakes don’t drink so much.” (page 20) We also find George taking the leadership role when he tells Lennie to
