The Poem "To a mouse" by Robert Burns. Of Mice and Men gets the name from this poem and when the poem says "the best laid schemes o' mice and men gang aft a glay" this means the best planned out plans of mice and men often go wrong. This represents the American dream, the characters plans to achieve this dream that go wrong.
While reading "Of Mice and Men," I learned about the challenges of friendship, loneliness, dreams, and social inequality during the Great Depression. The novella highlights the complexities of human relationships and the harsh realities of the time period, exploring themes of power, discrimination, and the pursuit of the American Dream.

However due to the books rough language, e.g the b-word or sl*t, there was an outcry and one source even described it as having no literary value.
