I want to read Of Mice and Men because I posed a question earlier about a novel that talked about friendship .

Question

I am an intelligent man and I have been up all night and yes, I am going to buy the book.

I have read a couple of synopses online but I just don't get it

I haven't read it - why is the story a portrait of friendship?

Answer 1

Sounds like you want some opinions for your homework. Read the story and you will find out why. The book is a little slow but it is worth the read. It will stick with you for the rest of your life. Just think of it as a learning tool that you will use in the future. It will also allow you to learn how deep friendship can get and just how many crappy friends you have and need to get rid of.
