I say it is quite an interesting story, yet it has some sad parts in it. For example, Lennie is never aware of his own strength in both Of Mice and Men the novel, and the movie, although according to the novel, and George doesn't feel sad after shooting Lennie. The similarities in the book and its movie will reveal the differences, which we will see why there is two different works about the original story.…
Throughout Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck portrays the characters as suspicious of each other and their actions, misunderstanding as they let their strongest feelings remain hidden which causes the loneliness and the gruffness of many characters that we associate with the book, as they feel that they have no one to talk to.…

A common theme between “Of Mice and Men” and “Those Winter Sundays” is that they both talk about hard work. Of Mice and Men, they work hard and hope to own their own land to work on. However in “Those Winter Sundays” it seems like it is a father that works hard for his family, he works hard to keep them warm, and also to keep food on the table. In paragraph 1, Of Mice and Men, it states “George warns Lennie that they are going to work on a ranch, and that he must behave himself.” Which just shows how important it is to George to get his own ranch. The biggest difference is that George and Lennie are working for themselves, and in “Those Winter Sundays”, its a man working hard for his family.…
The word foreshadow is a literary term that describes how the author discreetly gives clues to the readers that something is going to happen before it actually happens. George and Lennie, two men who have become close friends over time, travel together to a ranch to pursue their dream. George is Lennie's caretaker, for Lennie is mentally challenged. Throughout the story, foreshadowing plays a significant role in the most important chapters of George and Lennie's journey together. The three events that foreshadow the future are George telling Lennie to return to the brush if trouble occurs, Candy’s dog getting shot, and Lennie petting a dead mouse.…

---In John Stienbeck's Of Mice and Men, almost every character has a dream, hope, or plan. These plans, hopes, and dreams gives each character their own personality and character traits. George and Lennie's dream of one day owning their own farm makes their lives worth living and kept them going. Curley's Wife is a prime example of the disappointment that comes with the let down of a failed dream. And finally, Candy and Cooks, who's underlying problems with discrimination, both against age and nationality, reflects how they act, and how they would prefer they were treated.…
The presentation of Curley's wife is an interesting topic and her place as the only woman the reader meets in the novella puts her in a unique position. John introduced us to a character called Curley's wife, she plays a complex and misfit character as she got so many different sides to her, as sometimes the reader feels sympathetic and unsympathetic about her. John Steinbeck's novel of Mice and Men is an example of how the reader's perception of a character can change without the character actually changing.…

In the novel ' Of mice and men' John Steinbeck uses the character Crooks to represent racism across America and symbolise the marginalisation of the black community at the time the novel is set. From the beginning Steinbeck skillfully uses Crooks as a tool to give the reader an insight to the reality of the American Dream and what 1930's America was like. The reader has to decide whether Crooks deserves sympathy, or is just a bitter, cruel 'stable-buck'.…
The importance of minor characters might not have been truly understood until John Steinbeck wrote Of Mice and Men. Minor characters allow the author to have an event take place without going to deep into the characters background and back story. There are three extremely good examples of minor characters from Of Mice and Men, they are Curley's wife, Crooks, and Carlson.…

Let us commence a journey into the much travelled topic of Of mice and men. Advancments in Of mice and men can be linked to many areas. Until recently considered taboo amongst polite society, spasmodically it returns to create a new passion amongst those who study its history. It still has the power to shock global commercial enterprises, who are likely to form a major stronghold in the inevitable battle for hearts and minds. At the heart of the subject are a number of key factors. I plan to examine each of these factors in detail and and asses their importance.…
