Description
Set against the backdrop of California's Great Depression, this novella tells the poignant story of two men, George and Lennie, who are struggling to find their place in the world. Drifters with nothing but their hopes and dreams, they are searching for work and a place to call their own.
But their dreams are fragile and easily shattered. Lennie's childlike innocence and strength prove to be a deadly combination, and when they find work at a ranch, trouble follows. As the situation spirals out of control, it becomes clear that even George's protection may not be enough to save his friend from the consequences of his actions.
This powerful and moving tale of friendship and loneliness is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the human condition.
