Located in Monterey Co. 100 miles south of San Francisco 60 miles south of Silicon Valley 17 miles east of Monterey/Carmel 10 miles east of the Pacific Ocean

George: A migrant worker who travels from farm to farm for work during the Depression. Cares for Lennie, his childhood friend who is mentally disabled Lennie: A large mentally disabled man. Obsesses over touching soft things such as hair and fur Dreams of having a farm with George and raising rabbits Candy: An old, crippled man who has lost his hand Swamper at the ranch Curley: Son of ranch owner Formidable pugilist

Curley’s Wife: Considered a tramp by most of the ranch men Doesn’t have a name Crooks: Stable buck of the ranch Only Black man Carlson: Large man who complains about Candy’s old dog Offers to put the dog down Slim: Ranch foreman Wise man Boss: Suspects George and Lennie when they arrive late Fair man

George and Lennie go to a ranch near Salinas, California to work.George is Lennie’s keeper, and Lennie imitates everything that George does. Lennie previously had been kicked out of a town for grabbing a girl’s dress. He simply liked to touch soft items. That is also the reason that he has a dead mouse in his pocket: Lennie petted him too hardly. George promises Lennie that some day they will have their own farm and raise rabbits as well as other animals.

George and Lennie are late getting to the ranch. At the bunk house Curley acts tough around George and Lennie. George tells Lennie to stay away from Curley and his wife. Curley’s wife comes to the bunk house claiming that she is looking for Curley, but she would really like some attention. Slim gives Lennie one of his pups. Curley punched Lennie when Lennie confronted Curley about making fun of the farm idea. George gave Lennie permission, and Lennie crushed George’s hand. Slim told Curley that he “got it caught it a machine.”

Crooks is never included in any activity on the ranch. Lennie goes into Crooks’ room and tells all about Curley. Curley’s wife also goes in and talks with the two men even though Crooks tells them they shouldn’t be there. Later, Lennie kills his pup from bouncing it too much. Curley’s wife comes in and even though Lennie is not to be with her, the two of them share their feelings of loneliness. Lennie expresses his dream of the farm, and Curley’s wife expresses her dream of an acting career. Because Lennie likes soft things, he soons touches her hair and grabs on to it when she gets scared. Ultimately, Lennie breaks her neck.

Microcosm: The ranch is a microcosm of the world. The ranch and characters represent the world and people in general. Lennie, Curley’s wife, Candy, and Crooks represent the lonely imperfect people in the world. The boss represents the bosses and higher position people in the world. Curley represents the spoiled pugilist type of people who think they can control by physical strength. George and Slim represent the caretakers of the world. He is a hard worker who makes sure work gets done.

Curley kills Lennie! Lennie goes to an institution. George and Lennie buy a farm. George kills Lennie!
