Of Mice And Men Rhetorical Analysis

Of Mice and Men by Carson Collins Standing in a homey ranch house, glancing outside to the horses grazing and the rabbits jumping around, feeling light, yet remorse, because you get to experience Lennie and George's ultimate dream in the book, "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck. John Steinbeck gives a hopeful, sorrowful tone throughout the whole book, "Of Mice and Men" (1937). In the book, George and Lennie bounce around from job to job, never having a solid place to call home. George and Lennie land a secure job as ranch hands in Salinas Valley, which George protects Lennie from the struggles of their everyday life. John Steinbeck's use of characterization, setting, and tone make George's actions at the end justified. John Steinbeck characterizes Lennie as a slow, uneducated, giant
John Steinbeck creates a tone of friendship, brotherhood, and hope. According to the author, George said and claimed Lennie as his "cousin" and that "(He) told (Lennie's) old lady (he'd) take care of him" (22). Even though, they weren't related in any way, George took on the responsibility of taking care of him. These tones in the book make George's actions justified because you know that Lennie died at the hands of his brother. Roy Mustang said, "I'll do everything humanly possible to protect the people I love." People can argue George wasn't protecting anyone by killing a person, but George gave Lennie a mercy killing him at the hands of a brother instead of an enemy. The main tone of this book (sacrificing) makes you put in perspective things you might take for granted. Characterization, setting, and tone are the rhetorical strategies that makes George's actions justified at the end of the book, "Of Mice and Men," by John Steinbeck. Even though, one day I was standing at my cabin window, gazing outside, thinking about Lennie and George's failed dream, I would like to think Lennie is petting rabbits right
