OF MICE AND MEN by John SteinbeckRead about the other books on the list.
This book got me interested in English lessons at school. It captured my imagination in terms of the descriptions of the Depression era and the two main characters, Lennie and George. They’ve got a dream and go off to work but it all falls apart. It’s fantastic and timeless.
Of Mice and Men is among Susan Shillinglaw's thirteen best John Steinbeck books, Becky Ferreira's six most memorable bullies in literature, Paul Wilson's ten top books about disability, and Sarah Salway's top ten books about unlikely friendships.
