of mice and men what is example of something ironic from this chapter?
There are a few things ironic within this Chapter.
The first is the surnames of both men - 'George Milton' (as in Milton's 'Paradise Lost') where the bunkhouse and workfarm are far from being anyone's idea of 'paradise'...And 'Lennie Small' whereas Lennie is a long way off from being 'small'.
The second is when George replies to the boss's question 'What kinda job?' and George replies: 'We...we was diggin' a cesspool'. - The irony being that they were actually hiding in a cesspool to escape the men hunting them in Weed.
Hope this helps,
Derek.
