{"product_id":"of-mice-and-men-1","title":"Of Mice and Men","description":"A controversial tale of friendship and tragedy during the Great Depression\n\n\"A thriller, a gripping tale . . . that you will not set down until it is finished. Steinbeck has touched the quick.\" —The New York Times\n\nJohn Steinbeck's classic novella follows an unlikely pair: George is \"small and quick and dark of face\"; Lennie, a man of tremendous size, has the mind of a young child. Yet together they have formed a family, clinging to each other in the face of loneliness, and alienation, and hardship.\n\nLaborers in California's dusty vegetable fields, they hustle work when they can, living a hand-to-mouth existence. For George and Lennie have a plan: to own an acre of land and a shack they can call their own. When they land jobs on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, the fulfillment of their dream seems to be within their grasp. But even George cannot guard Lennie from the provocations of a flirtatious woman, nor predict the consequences of Lennie's unswerving obedience to the things George taught him.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0140177396\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGLF0088EU_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Steinbeck, John\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Mass Market Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
