I need some help with this, I have not read much of the Book "Of Mice and Men" and I need the answers to these questions by Friday. Ty 1. Were there words in the book you didn't understand (they can be slang words or just words
you didn't know)?
2. Where do you see foreshadowing in the novel?
3. What types of things did you mark for compassion while reading?
4. Why do you think the boss doesn't have a larger role in the novel?
5. Why do you think Steinbeck includes Lennie's hallucinations of Aunt Clara and the rabbit?
What purpose does that serve?
6. Why do you think Steinbeck never mentions Curly's wife's name? What purpose does that
serve?
7. How do you feel about Curly's wife? What makes you feel that way?
8. What purpose does the character of Carlson serve in the novel?
9. Why are the last few lines of the novel significant?
10. Why do you think Steinbeck titles it Of Mice and Men?
11. Why do you think Steinbeck starts each chapter with such thorough imagery? What purpose
does that serve? Go beyond the obvious (beyond "he's setting the scene" etc.).
12. Does George do the right thing at the end of the story? Why or why not?
13. Do you think George was a good friend to Lennie? Why or why not?
14. Why do you think this book ends up on so many banned lists?
15. Do you consider this book to be dangerous" for young readers? Why or why not?
