Writer's craft

The book I was reading is Of Mice and Men. The story theme is we can not be alone even though you say you can be alone. You would always need a friend right beside you. It also shows that you would always try to bully the weaker ones and the weaker ones would bully the weakest ones. The Characters in the story are Lennie, George, Crook, Candy, Curly, and Curly’s wife. Lennie is a type of guy who is strong as in physically in the outside, but weak in the inside. The problem is, is that people looks at what he has done,like for instance he accidentally killed a mouse when he was petting it or killed a pup because he thought the pup was going to bite him so he hit the head of the pup which made the pup die. George is a friend of Lennie. They have known each other since they were small. George is sometimes mean, but it seems like he is trying to hide his soft side with his cold look. George tries to help Lennie because Lennie makes much trouble in the place they are working. George knows Lennie the best and helps him. Lennie would looks like he is the weakest of the story because he doesn’t really know what to do in his life he follows George’s orders because it is the safest thing to do and also he always get in trouble. They would like to live in their best interest. Candy is not a main character, but is part of the mains. He is a handy man in the ranch they are working and is old. He is a type of person that does not want to argue in a bad way with people in the ranch. Crook it the only one in the ranch that is colored. He works as a stable- hand. He is usually bitter because in that time diversity was not a good thing. He was always alone and had no friends. He lived in alone when other guys would all live together. He starts to like Lennie after talking to him. Curly is the boss’s son and would always put himself in danger because he is aggressive and he is also has a sharp meanness in himself which makes people get stressed out which makes Curly get in lot of trouble from the workers like fight would be started. He has recently married a woman. Curly’s wife behavior shows that she is always isolated and never gets to talk with anybody. She doesn’t really like her husband. Her intentions are to make friends with the workers because she has no friends and never gets to talk to anyone. Crook shows loneness by telling Lennie that he is always alone and never gets to talk with anyone. He kept on telling stuff about his loneness and explains what he wanted to do, like he wants to talk with someone because it makes him sick sometimes to not talk with anyone. Culy’s wife in the other hand would ask the guys where her husband is. This is the part when she tries to make through the border and try to talk to them more and try to make friends. Of course the guys dose not want any trouble so they would tell her to back off and go away. They do not really like either. Later on Curly’s wife start to talk with Lennie when Lennie was alone in the barn petting a pup. She told him that she was lonely and wanted some friends and wanted to talk to someone. She got to talk with him for a while. The Characters relate to each other because there is always going to be a weak on in a group and always a leader.
