Streetwise George and his big, childlike friend Lennie are drifters, searching for work in the fields and valleys of California. They have nothing except the clothes on their back, and a hope that one day they'll find a place of their own and live the American dream. But dreams come at a price. Gentle giant Lennie doesn't know his own strength, and when they find work at a ranch he gets into trouble with the boss's daughter-in-law. Trouble so bad that even his protector George may not be able to save him.
约翰•斯坦贝克(John Steinbeck, 1902-1968),美国文学家,1962年获诺贝尔文学奖。
一生共创作27部作品,其中包括喜剧小说《罐头厂街》,跨类型作品《伊甸之东》,普利策奖获奖作品《愤怒的葡萄》,旅行作品《横越美国》等。
斯坦贝克是地位崇高的文学大 师,也是最受美国民众喜爱的畅销作家。他1968年过世之后,作品每年仍持续卖出两百万册,累计迄今已将近一亿册,其中超过半数是《愤怒的葡萄》《人鼠之间》这两部代表作。
斯坦贝克之所以深受美国人民欢迎,主要是因为他描写的人物正是最基层的社会大众。他刻画出他们面对困境时所展现出来的人性光辉:善良,同情,以及为生存而奋斗的勇气。
《人鼠之间》是美国中学10部必读经典之一,可谓一部真正的文学经典。
i don't know if steinback did this deliberately or not, but carson, crooks, curley, curley's wife, candy all begin with C as if the author put them together as a group of lonely people, or perhaps suggest that life is like a circle... anyway, really enjoy...

评分Depression,由社会到人心。俚语很多,理解不能完全。关于绝望和友情。
评分小时候看过珍珠之后,瞬间爱上斯坦倍克 George和Lennie……这是一本关于孤独的书 孤独是最大的渴望 最后又成了最终的惩罚 Gary Sinise的同名电影也拍得非常不错
