Of Mice and Men In the story of mice and men, loneliness plays a major role in the way the story is told. George is just one, of the lonely characters in the story where loneliness impacts his life dramatically. Curley’s wife is also a very lonely person who has no one to talk to except for her husband who is always working and doesn’t care about her. While these characters have at least one person in their life to be with, Crooks has no one which is why in my opinion, he is the loneliest…

Through Lennie’s physical power he is often incapable of controlling himself resulting in disasters for instance the unintentional killing of animals such as the mouse. Slim’s puppy is a symbol, which embodies the triumph of the strong over the weak. Lennie kills the puppy accidentally by ‘petting it too hard’ equally in the way that he ‘petted the mouse too hard’; however he fails to acknowledge his own strength. Even though no one is stronger than Lennie, he can be portrayed as a harmless…

At first Crooks sends Lennie away, but eventually a conversation ensues in which Lennie says he came into the barn to see his pups, and Crooks warns Lennie that he is taking the pups from the nest too much. Lennie's disarming smile finally warms Crooks, and he lets Lennie stay and talk. During their conversation, Lennie tells the secret about the farm, which…

In Darabont’s The Shawshank Redemption, he explores the idea of institutionalism through the key characters Red and Brooks. Darabont uses symbolism, narrative structure and characterisation to express this idea, and does it through a wide range of filmic techniques. The first character in the movie we see as institutionalised is Brooks. Darabont uses characterisation to explore this theme through brooks. Originally, Brooks is a rather cheerful man. He does his job in the library and takes care…

Of Mice and Men is set outside the town of Soledad, California during The Great Depression, where two childhood friends make their way from the town of Weed to find work. Everywhere jobs are scarce and these men face many hardships on their journey. Throughout the story, Steinbeck hints that all will not end well; this creates a gloomy mood that winds its way to a dismal conclusion. In Of Mice and Men nearly every scene serves as foreshadowing for the inevitable tragic ending. In the first…

The new title I chose for the novella “Of Mice and Men” is “Always My Companion.” The meaningful quote I chose is, “With us it ain't like that. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us.” My new cover relates to my title, and quote and demonstrates the strong relationship George and Lennie had, throughout the novella. I chose the new title “Always My Companion” because it relates to the storyline of the novella “Of Mice and Men.” For example, in the novella the two…

The loneliest character in Of Mice and Men is Crooks because he is the only African American on the…

Perspectives How would like to be known as someone else’s property? Well, in the book Of Mice and Men, Curley’s wife is known as just another one of her husband’s belongings. No one ever called Curley’s wife by her real name. Calling a person by someone else’s name makes them seem apart of someone and not their self. Of Mice and Men symbolized many things, but especially showed how women weren’t treated the same as men. It also showed that women didn’t have much of a choice on what they wanted…
