Of Mice And Men - John Steinbeck
OK, so Of Mice And Men is a novel/play written by John Steinbeck all about the American Dream and two main characters on the journey to achieving it...or so they think.

Part of my GCSE is based on this book, as I'm sure anyone else doing GCSE English Language and English Literature is. So, yeah, anyone who has already done this or is doing this now, do you have notes on it or do you want to discuss it? I think I'm confident with the text but I've been told I don't analyse language as well as I could and that I tell the story too much, which I know I do and I'm trying to stop doing. I just think it would be worthwile to talk to other people about what I've been taught and learn some of what they've been taught. After all, alternative interpretations get you more marks...

I'll keep checking this thread for any replies.

I read that freshman year. Truthfully, that's the only book for school I've ever read the whole way through.

My teacher would always stop us in the middle of the book to talk about this foreshadowing so that kind of ruined the book. I knew something was going to go wrong with their plans. But i never thought the book would go as far as to killing Curly's wife, and then Lennie. I liked it
