Literary essay about Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. The prompt is Why do you think the characters of Lennie, Crooks, and Curley’s wife were included in the story?
How did you feel towards each of these characters? Would you say they are loners or viewed as “undesirables”? Why do all the other characters have names except Curley’s wife? How does this reflect the society of the time it was written and in the time the story is set? Why are they all compared to some sort of animal? How does Steinbeck feel about these lone characters?
