Hanna Mann 7 October, 2015 Period 3 Inevitable Melancholy Humans and mice have more in common than what society think. The two are so alike that both mice and men share almost 99% of the same genes. In Robert Burns’ poem “To a Mouse” and John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men all the characters have a goal. The quote in Robert Burns’ poem, “The best laid schemes of mice and men go aft astray, and leave us naught but pain and sorrow for promised joy” can connect to both stories and how each character wants to strive to achieve their goal.
Does the story end the way you expected it to? As I was finishing each chapter, I was predicting what the next chapter would be about, my predictions weren't so similar to the book. Although some ideas were not so different but not so alike. In chapter 2, when Curley was snapping at Lennie, I thought Lennie was done for, since Curley was the boss's son. But it wasn't like that, Lennie stayed with his job.
Based off what the reader knows about Crooks from chapter four, the reader can infer that he would be the kind of person to join the NAACP. The reason for this is because he believes that African Americans do not receive the same things that whites do. In the text it states, “‘ This is just a nigger talkin’, an’ a busted-black nigger, So it don’t mean nothing, see? [...]
Of Mice and Men Essay Of course money and power is something so great to have, people often get caught up in their own world of making themselves happy that they forget about family and true friends that are much greater than money and power. Money and power comes and goes, while friendship can stay for a lifetime. Money and power is hard to get and even harder to keep it, while friendship is easy to find and easy to keep forever (Compound). Money and power will leave you lonesome and make you somebody you’re not just to please people, while friendship has somebody there to comfort you anytime, make you believe in yourself and bring the good out of you even if that means sacrificing a lot. Friendship is far superior than money and power ever was (simple).
This book takes place in the spring of 1975, and in the state of New Hampshire. The town is quite, and everyone knew one another since they were little children. The characters were mostly seniors in high school, so they had those old cell phones. Most teenagers thought it was cool to drink and smoke, and to party all night. Jocelyn and Gabe had jobs at a breakfast diner where everyone hung out and met up with friends.
Of MICE AND MEN is an incredible book showing a dream two men had. Lennie and George work off each other, they are companions in their life dream. With a friendship there always comes complications that grow down the line. George pretty much had to watch over Lennie and his handicapped mental state, making sure he did not get into trouble or kill any thing on accident. No one understood their friendship, but George needed Lennie’s companionship.
In the novella, Of Mice and Men, the author John Steinbeck illustrates a ranch in the 1930’s during the great depression where those who fit into mainstream society run the show, and those deemed “outcasts” are rendered useless. Steinbeck depicts characters with setbacks that diminish their value in the eyes of society, and contrasts them to characters that have no difficulties conforming to the norm. Crooks, being a black man isolated by his race, and Candy, a elderly man limited by his age and missing limb are examples of Steinbeck characters that experience hardships because of the differences. The poor treatment of Crooks and Candy by the other characters, and their chronic unhappiness in a place that doesn’t value them, comments on how
“Of Mice and Men” is a play written by John Steinbeck during the 1930’s. Likewise, the play is also set during that time. The play, which centers around two farmer hands’ struggle to achieve their ambitious dream of owning a farm of their own despite harsh external conditions, aims to reflect the lives of middle-class Americans during the Great Depression. The play’s main element, in my opinion, is the fact that it was set in a time of struggle for all socioeconomic classes due to the upperclassmen’s financial catastrophe. Steinbeck brilliantly explores individual struggles in different characters in the play and how they are hidden within a much bigger societal problem that is experienced not only nationally but globally as well.
A work of literature that has unsettled me is Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. This caused me to stir with strong unsettling emotion because of the way that the novel ended. Near the end of the story, a mentally deficient man, Lennie accidently murders a young woman. He was simply trying to quiet her. She was so scared from his attentions that she had started screaming.
Since Lennie and George travel together i think the benefits that come with that is, they have each other to there not alone in this journey like other people in the Great Depression. Secondly if one of them gets hurt or something bad happens in generally or they need help the other person can at least try to do something but if there alone they would just have to figure it out by themselves. They also solve things together and even thought there might be a smarter person in the friendship at the end of the day if they but there ideas together they come up with something better just because they worked together,which is something you cant do if your by yourself. The risks that come with this id that they might end up get in into a heated argument
School is like a factory. School helps kids get better or builds their brains up. A factory builds things up dealing with machinery. Schools offer cheerleading. While many believe cheerleading is a sport.
