Description
The second book in John Steinbeck’s labor trilogy, Of Mice and Men is a touching tale of two migrant laborers in search of work and eventual liberation from their social circumstances. Fiercely devoted to one another, George and Lennie plan to save up to finance their dream of someday owning a small piece of land. The pair seems unstoppable until tragedy strikes and their hopes come crashing down, forcing George to make a difficult decision regarding the welfare of his best friend. The novel is set on a ranch in Soledad, CA. Author Frank Bergon recalls reading Of Mice and Men for the first time as a teenager living in the San Joaquin Valley and remembers how he saw “as if in a jolt of light the ordinary surroundings of [his] life become worthy of literature.” Steinbeck works to propagate the notion that meaningful stories emerge from the marginalized; that even those on the fringes of society can make deserving contributions to the literary canon.

Description
Van muizen en mensen is een klassieker in de wereldliteratuur. Tijdens de crisis van de jaren dertig van de vorige eeuw proberen de dagloners George en Lennie het hoofd boven water te houden. Op het platteland van de Verenigde Staten trekken zij van farm naar farm, maar elke keer zorgt de zwakzinnige Lennie voor problemen die George moet oplossen. Op de volgende ranch lijkt alles goed te gaan, maar Curley, de zoon van de baas, is nogal opvliegend van aard. En bovendien kan Lennie zijn ogen niet van Curley's vrouw afhouden.
