Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck
Introduction:
Of Mice and Men is a novel, which considers really interesting subjects such as dream/reality, innocence, loneliness, authority and violence. I believe these are the main themes the book contains, these are the things that the author wants us, the readers, to find out.

Then one day Lennie goes in the barn where crooks are living. They start talking and Lennie tells crooks about George and his dream. Crooks attitude seams very...
