Even from the very beginning where he describes Lennie "walk[ing] heavily‚ dragging his feet a little‚ the way a bear drags his paws‚" p4 we see this comparison. Each of the animals mentioned in the novel are used as a metaphor to Lennie’s personality and behaviour. Dragging his "paws" like a "bear" depicts an image of a slow‚ overly large man‚ harmlessly prodding along. Steinbeck cleverly chooses these

    8/26/13 Don DeLillo’s idea of what it must have been like for young Lee Harvey Oswald is described in a very raw and introspective way. He sheds an interesting light on Oswald’s childhood‚ one that might be perceived and interpreted differently if it wasn’t made known that the boy riding trains in New York would grow up to murder a U.S. president. The author uses a quiet tone to describe rather graphic events‚ while the imagery gives it a sense of realness and the diction gives off a somber feeling.
