Of Mice and men

The book mice and men is about the friendship between two migrant agricultural labourers, Georg Milton and Lennie Small.

They are working on different ranches, don’t have any family, and they are lonely, but they have each other. They have the same dream, a small ranch of their own.
The story start when George and Lennie rest by the river, on their way to a new ranch, where they expect to sign up for temporary work. They have just left a job, because of Lennie how was accused of of attemted rape. Lennie likes too stroke nice thing, and therefore is he always get in trouble.

Lennie is a big man, but the brain/mine of a young child. He as always get inn trouble, but never because of meanness.

George is a short men, intelligent and a big self- confidence. He is always taking care and look after Lennie. He always stands up for Lennie and protect him of himself and others.

The day they arrive too the ranch , they get some palce too sleep, the bunk- house ( the house where the workers live). They meet some other caracters, Candy, Curley and his wife.
Candy is an old man with only one hand, Curley is the boss`son, how don’t like that George will not let Lennie speak up fore him self. Curleys young wife is a lonely person how just married Curley in an attempt to escape from her miserable life with her mother.

Slim is the foreman. He is very much liked and respect by the other workers, an is very friendly against George and Lennie.

The strongest/best sentence I have read so fare is:

”Guys like us, that work on ranches are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no family. They don’t belong no place… With us it ain’t like that. We got a future… because I got you to look after me, and you got me to look after you”
