A set of relationships that I thought were very similar was George and Lennie’s relationship compared to Sonny and Mr.Bykovski. Both of these relationships involve a strong friendship that results in sacrifice. For Sonny and Mr.Bykovski’s relationship Mr.Bykovski had to sacrifice his safe job and go work in the mines just so that he could make the rocket shells for Sonny’s early rockets.
