he is a black stable buck in the 1930's in the book Of Mice and Men
The most common collective noun is a bunch of crooks. Then there is a gang of thieves, a gang of robbers, so why not a gang of crooks.
Because Crooks realises not all white people are bad. And he would have better oh their farm.
Lennie tells Crooks about the plan he and George have (and now Candy as well) to get a little farm together. Lennie will be able to tend the rabbits, and as he and Crooks sit in Crooks' room out in the barn, Candy is in the bunkhouse "figurin' and figurin'" about the rabbits and how they might be able to make some money on them. The dream they had of "livin' offa the fatta the lan'" (living off of the fat of the land) was supposed to kept a secret, but Lennie doesn't realize that he shouldn't tell Crooks about it. At first, Crooks scoffs at the idea. He says, "No one never gets to Heaven, and no one never gets no land," but when Candy admits that it's true, Crooks wants in. However, Curley's wife winds up coming out to the barn, and she puts Crooks back in his place, so he ends the chapter telling Candy that he was just kidding about wanting to go to the dream farm with them. As readers, we know that he wasn't kidding, but we also know that Crooks is right to realize that he wouldn't be able to join with the others since he is a Black man in the 1930's south (California) and the prejudice of the whites will keep him from joining them.
Because he african american! and the civil right movement wasn't there yet!
In John Steinbeck's novella "Of Mice and Men," the character Crooks is often referred to as "the stable buck," but he does not have a specific English name. The story highlights themes of loneliness and discrimination, particularly through Crooks, who is marginalized due to his race and disability. His character serves to illustrate the broader social issues of the time.
