    Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men deals with the plight of migrant labourers in California during the Great Depression‚ with the focus on two random migrant workers‚ George and Lennie.

    Novel: Of Mice and Men Author: John Steinbeck John Steinbeck’s novel Of Mice and Men examines the idea that the American Dream is a futile ambition.
