Because "Of Mice and Men" wasn't very long, I finished it rather quickly. I'm a little surprised I made it through Jr High and High School (and College English for that matter) not having read this book. I mean...everyone has read this book. But I will say, I'm glad that I did.
My husband and I always talk about movies and books that have moral dilemmas and how real life that is--we are all faced with them at some point in our lives (to lesser or greater degrees). And this book has some serious moral dilemmas. It's very well written and you can't help but feel for George and Lennie but especially George. Ah! Such a difficult situation and this book made me tear up more than once.
Here's the print I designed for this book and it's currently up in the shops both here and here. I tried a little different of a style this time. I think it's fitting for the book.
