A controversial tale of friendship and tragedy during the Great Depression, Steinbeck’s story of commitment, loneliness, hope, and loss remains one of America’s most widely read and taught novels. An unlikely pair, George and Lennie, two migrant workers in California during this tumultuous time, grasp for their American Dream. They hustle for work, living a hand-to-mouth existence, with a plan to own an acre of land and a shack they can call their own. When they secure jobs on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, the fulfillment of their dream seems within reach. However, George struggles to protect Lennie from provocations and cannot foresee the consequences of Lennie’s unwavering obedience to George’s guidance. Of Mice and Men represents an innovative narrative form, described by Steinbeck as “a kind of playable novel.” It has achieved remarkable success as a novel, a Broadway play, and three acclaimed films, solidifying its place in American literature.
