Of mice and men
This is my favorite
Steinbeck novel
. It is a beautiful story and a must read. One of the few books that I would like to read again. Simply put, this is the story of a TRUE friendship between two
men
, one of whom is mentally challenged. Read it!!

Moving story
Steinbeck
was a celebrated american author and nobel laureate. This tale is short but provocative ideally suited for a light read before bedtime.
The author's style is simple, in the spirit of Hemingway, and narrative like Faulkner. Interwoven in the story are themes of isolation, racism and euthanasia told in the relations between two drifters, George and the
mentally challenged
Lennie, looking for farm work.
The story is captivating and tragic with an uncanny realism allowing the reader to identify with the characters and their emotional state.

Of Mice and Men
This book was super duper, the thing I liked the most was that Lenny was the big tall strong man, but he wasn't all the way there in his brain. George the short and not strong man was controlling Lenny. Lenny isn't gentle, he seems to like to pet soft things.
When Lenny killed Curley`s wife he didn't know what to do so he ran away. Then the group of
men
was following him until George found him and he said "imagines up there on that hill and imagine how our house will look like, then George puts the gun next to Lenny`s head and killed him. George did that because he didn't want him to go through the misery of being killed by Curley. This book was extremely good, but the ending was pretty bad.
