AR Quiz # (Quiz Name): 8665 (Of Mice and Men) Reading Level: 4.5 Interest Level: Upper Grade Point Value: 4.0 While the powerlessness of the laboring class is a recurring theme in Steinbeck's work of the late 1930s, he narrowed his focus when composing "Of Mice and Men" (1937), creating an intimate portrait of two men facing a world marked by petty tyranny, misunderstanding, jealousy, and callousness. But though the scope is narrow, the theme is universal; a friendship and a shared dream that makes an individual's existence meaningful. |
