The novel Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, is about two men who are brought together and share a few good times, such as each other?s company, and the more overwhelmingly the bad times. Both men fight the loneliness that was ramped during the Depression.
John Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California, in 1902. He was raised in a fertile agricultural valley about twenty miles from the Pacific Coast. Both the valley and the coast would become the setting for some of his novels and short stories. In 1919 he attended Stanford University, where he took literature and writing classes.
In 1925 he left the university. He did not attain a degree before his departure. For the next five years of Steinbeck?s life, he worked as a laborer and a journalist in New York City. Then he worked as a caretaker for an estate in Lake Tahoe.
During these five years, he was also working on his first novel, Cup of Gold. He then got married and moved to Pacific Groove where
