Summary: Of Mice and Men is a story about George and Lennie. George was wise and little, and Lennie is retarted and big. They represented the labor classes in the early American society. When Lennie killed Curley’s wife in accident, the white who is the powerful group inthe society could kill them without wondering right or wrong. I sympathize the characters in the novel because weather they are powerful or not, they are all alone.
