Is ‘Of mice and men’ a pessimistic novel? Written in 1936‚ ‘Of Mice and Men’ is perhaps a bleak novella by John Steinbeck. It is set in California in the 1930’s at the time of ‘The Great Depression’ and ‘The Dust Bowl’ when life was particularly harsh and humanity somewhat lacking.

It’s amazing how men ad women can be considered the same but yet be so very different. On the outside they may look alike- two eyes‚ two ears‚ a nose‚ mouth‚ hands‚ and so on‚ but they could not be more different. So the saying goes‚ "men are from Mars and women are from Venus".

Many of the animals in the labs have been burnt‚ tortured‚ shocked‚ or starved. To top it all off‚ they do not give them any pain medicine to help them cope with the excruciating pain. The animals are almost never taken out of their cages to be played with‚ other than to be tested on some more. Animals such as rats and mice live in plastic boxes

many people want so many things out of it. Happiness is not something you can buy or trade‚ it is a feeling‚ happiness is created. Happiness is something you have when you just know it is going to be a good day. Most people think happiness is having all the money‚ the better car or phone‚ the bigger house‚ but it is not. Happiness is a way of life. Happiness is something you feel‚ you should not have to be the most popular. People should learn that happiness is being around friends‚ family‚ and things
