BLURB

"'Of Mice and Men' revolves around two central characters: Lennie and George. Lennie is a man with the strength of two, but with it the mind of a child — simple, unaffected, and kindly. His whole world centres around George, who steers him through life and protects him when his superhuman strength and child's mind unwittingly entangle him in trouble.

Of 'Cannery Row' John Steinbeck said he just "opened the pages and let the stories crawl in by themselves'. 'Cannery Row' is a street bordered by houses, shacks, and boiler pipes, in which live all kinds of people, good and bad, kind and cruel, the industrious and the idle, who have one thing at least in common — their poverty." - Goodreads
