Corrupting Power Of Women In John Steinbeck's Of Mice And Men
“Of Mice and Men” is a story about two friends named George and Lennie who worked on a ranch while seeking a dream farm. Although they almost achieved their dream, they were ultimately disillusioned due to unqualified treatment related to the abuse of the lower social class. Steinbeck explored the unfulfilled dreams of minorities and migrant workers set against the background of the Great Depression in 1930’s America.
What I dislike about the story is the motif of the corrupting power of women. The author thinks women are just an object for men. Because Lennie likes petting soft objects, he touches a woman’s red dress in Weed. She thinks that Lennie was attempting to rape her, so they had to run away in order to get out of trouble. Curley’s
