John Steinbeck

Crooks invites Lennie to stay and talk with him because he is lonely and enjoys having someone to converse with. He also senses that Lennie is a good listener and won't judge him for being a black man on the ranch. Additionally, Crooks sees an opportunity to exert some power and control over someone else, as he is typically marginalized and isolated on the ranch.

He blames her that they won't get the house.

George and Lennie are foils on a few different levels. One is in appearance. Lennie is a strong burly man, while George is short and small. The two characters are also oppositional in attitude. Lennie is calm and loving, while George is easily excited. Lennie follows orders and George takes charge. Lennie also goes through life with the desire to simply love and be loved, and George realizes the cruelties of the world and attempts to conquer them.

Candy wanted to talk to Lennie about the dream of owning a piece of land with George and him. Candy offered to contribute money towards purchasing the land in exchange for being allowed to live there and work with them.

John Steinbeck used the symbol of the canoe in "The Pearl" to represent Kino's connection to his ancestors and the traditional way of life. The canoe also symbolizes hope and freedom for Kino and his family as they navigate through their journey towards a better future. Additionally, the canoe symbolizes the passage from one phase of life to another, reflecting Kino's emotional and spiritual journey throughout the story.

Lennie gets excited because Slim and Carlson are discussing getting a puppy for Slim's dog, which Lennie sees as an opportunity to have a pet of his own and take care of something small and gentle. This sparks his desire for companionship and responsibility.

George is devastated and feels immense guilt for not being able to protect Lennie. The other ranch workers, particularly Slim and Carlson, react with shock and some understanding of George's decision to shoot Lennie. Curley reacts with anger and seeks revenge.

because she didn't receive a letter from Hollywood and her mom wouldn't let her.

One of the most prevalent themes of Of Mice and Men is man's need for companionship. Both Curley's wife and Crooks are lonely people who are not accepted by the rest of the ranch hands, Crooks on account of being black and Curley's wife for being (salacious) woman.

George and Lennie's job is to find work as farm laborers during the Great Depression. They aim to save enough money to one day own their own piece of land where they can live off the fat of the land and tend to rabbits.

The candy suggests that George has lice by mentioning the lice powder on his bunk, implying that George has been using the powder to treat a possible lice infestation. This information may serve as a warning to others to check for and treat lice if necessary.

George gave Lennie to his new boss because they travel and work together as a team, with George looking out for Lennie who has mental disabilities and needs guidance to stay safe and out of trouble. Keeping Lennie by his side allows George to protect him and ensure he is cared for.

George and Lennie had lost their previous job because Lennie was going to get blamed for raping a girl that lived in the farm in Weeds. You see the lady was wearing silky dress and since Lennie loved to touch soft things he wanted to touch the dress and keep it. When Lennie touched the dress and the girl screamed. Lennie got really scared that George had to hit him with a fence post. The girl claimed that she got raped and that is when George and Lennie hid in a irrigation ditch and ran away that same night.

The book has many themes but possibly the strongest one is that money is not the solution to all of life's problems. Kino (the protagonist) finds a pearl and immediately assumes it will make his life much better. It then goes to destroy many parts of his life before he finally gets rid of it.

Casey does not profess to love Jesus in Chapter 4 of "The Grapes of Wrath" because he feels disconnected from his faith and does not believe in the traditional teachings of the church. He struggles with the idea of organized religion and questions the role of God in the suffering of the people he sees around him. Casey is on a personal journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening, which leads him to reevaluate his beliefs and understanding of faith.

Lennie is proud of himself for successfully watering the puppy, as George instructed him to be gentle and not harm it. However, his lack of control leads to him accidentally drowning the puppy while trying to be kind.

Yes, in "Of Mice and Men," both the ranch hands and Lennie find Curley's wife attractive. Examples of her openly flirting with the men include seeking out their company, complimenting them on their physical appearance, and engaging in suggestive conversation to garner attention and provoke reactions from them.

There are different kinds of conflict. Conflict just means "to come into collision or disagreement"

Therefore, conflict could consist of Man vs. Man, Man vs. Self, Man vs. Nature, Man vs. Machine, ect. just ask yourself what conflicts are in The Pearl by applying those.

The town from which George and Lennie are fleeing at the beginning of the novel is called Weed. They left Weed because Lennie's actions involving a woman's dress caused trouble and led to them escaping to find work elsewhere.
