"Guys like us, that work on ranches, are the loneliest guys in the world. They got no family. They don't belong no place ... With us it ain't like that. We got a future ... because I got you to look after me and you got me to look after you." George and Lennie are migrant American laborers --the one alert and protective and the other strong, stupid and potentially dangerous. This is the powerful story of their relationship and their dreams of finding a more stable and less lonely way of life. This edition contains notes to aid student comprehension as well as details on both the author and the period during which the novel is set.
