"A simple, yet poignant story of
friendship, hope, and dreams, Of Mice and Men is
arguably one of John Steinbeck's greatest works. Set
in California during the 1930s Depression era, the story
begins as two men, George, tough but likeable, and Lennie, a
large, lumbering man with mental deficiencies, find their
way along the Salinas River in search of their dream.
Steinbeck has artfully created believable
characters living real life, and in doing so, has
brilliantly captured the strength and determination of the
human spirit."
