does not have any identity or position on the ranch. As Curley’s Wife is a representation of all women in the 1930s I feel Steinbeck uses her to show that most women back then had no identity or position in the working world. No characters in the novella care for Curley’s Wife and very little attention is given to her. However many of the men only see her as an object.

Crooks is isolated because of color and his disability. He is physically divided from his fellow co workers and lives in a separate bunkhouse. His loneliness forces him to acquiesce when Lennie tries to make a decent conversation with him. But when Lennie fills Crooks in about the dream farm place‚ all he does is laughs. It could be because he saw too many men say that but they end up working for someone or just simply ended up in ditch. Crooks is understandably cynical and shows apprehension about

Johnny Bear and Of Mice and Men One similarity between the story of Johnny Bear and the novella of Of Mice and Men is the description of Johnny Bear and Lennie. An interesting description on p. 2 of Johnny Bear describes Johnny Bear as a “great‚ stupid‚ smiling bear”. This description is parallel to the one in Of Mice and Men. “Behind him walked his opposite‚ a huge man‚ shapeless of face‚ with large‚ pale eyes‚ with wide sloping shoulders; and he walked heavily‚ dragging his feet a little‚ the

In the novella ‘Of Mice and Men’‚ John Steinbeck uses strengths and weaknesses by using the characters to show both their strengths and weaknesses. Irony and foreshadowing play a large roll on how the story ends. Lennie and his habit of harming soft things‚ not on purpose‚ but he is a victim of his own strength. George trying to pretend that his feelings for Lennie mean nothing. The entire novel is repetitive in themes and expressed views. Loneliness and companionship are one of the many themes
