About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Drifters in search of work, George and simple-minded friend Lennie have nothing in the world except each other - and a dream. A dream that one day they will have some land of their own. Eventually they find work on a ranch, but their hopes are doomed as Lennie - struggling against extreme cruelty, misunderstanding and jealousy - becomes a victim of his own strength.

Tackling universal themes, friendship and a shared vision, and giving a voice to America's lonely and dispossessed, Of Mice and Men remains Steinbeck's most popular work.

My introduction to Steinbeck. One of my favourite books. Listening to it now and knowing where it is going made it all the sadder.

Heartbreaking

Steinbeck’s masterful storytelling elevates this novella out of its contextual settings into a universal piece that probes the shadowy line between good and evil, and compels readers to consider that intent is the better lens through which human actions and behaviors can be understood.

Great narration, amazing story.
