Of Mice and MenSynopsis:

Of Mice and Men is set on a large ranch in the Salinas Valley of 1930s California. The story centers on two itinerant ranch hands — Lennie Small, a strong, but child-like mentally disabled man, and George Milton, who looks after Lennie and dreams of owning a farm. Their unusual relationship is one of mutual need: Lennie needs George to restrain and direct him; and George, though frustrated by Lennie’s simplistic urges and their complications, feels a loyalty and obligation to him. Lennie’s part of the dream, which he never tires of hearing George describe, is merely to tend to (and touch) soft rabbits on the farm.

Driven from job to job by the failure of Lennie to adapt to social norms, they find work on a ranch, where they feel they have a chance to earn some money toward their goal of having their own farm. The two men meet a coworker who offers his savings to help finance the purchase of a farm, and their prospects brighten. Before their dream can be realized, however, Lennie and George’s plans fall victim to forces beyond their control.
