In a couple of weeks we have been working with a book called «of mice and men». It is a short novel written by Nobel prize winner (1962) John Steinbeck. By now i have read 3 chapters of it.
The Novel «of mice and men» is about two friends – quick-witted George and simple-minded Lenny. George is a small guy, dark of face, with restless eyes and sharp, strog features. Lenny is the opposite; a huge man, shapeless of face, with wide, sloping shoulders. They are both ranch-hands, and together they are moving from ranch to ranch, looking after work. But everywhere they go, lenny seams to get them in trouble. Not because he wants to make trouble, but because he dont know any better. Lenny is not the type who can take care of himselfe, so George have to take care of him, and make shure de don`t do anything stupid that could cost them their job.
They both have the same dream about someday owning their own place. thats what keeps them together. Especially i like the way the two of them never looses their faith of one day fulfilling their dream.
