1937 Of Mice and Men 1st ed John Steinbeck California Great Depression Classic

The iconic tale, “Of Mice and Men” by John Steinbeck is one of the most famous pieces of American literature and certainly among Steinbecks best and most iconic works. It is a riveting tale of friendship, dreams, and the struggles faced by people during the Great Depression. The book follows two itinerant ranch workers, George Milton and Lennie Small, who are vastly different yet bound by a shared dream: to own a piece of land. George is small and resourceful, while Lennie is physically strong but mentally limited. Their journey underscores the challenges of the era and explores themes of loyalty, ambition, and the human yearning for a place to call home. Steinbecks superb storytelling draws the reader into a world marked by stark realities, giving a compelling view into the human condition. Notably, this novella is one of the most commonly censored and prohibited books because of the references to racism and offensive language.
