One of the most gifted and influential writers of this century, John Steinbeck was also one of America's most popular novelists. Of Mice and Men is the classic novel which forged his place permanently within American literature.
George and Lennie are two itinerant ranch hands drifting through life. Semi-retarded, timid and unknowingly powerful, Lennie is lost without his guardian, George, who feels his witted friend has been delivered into his keeping. Bound by their fragile dream of owning land where they will 'belong', their paradisal future is all too soon tragically and irrevocably shattered. --back cover
