Commentary Conducive To Books Of Mice and Men/Cannery Row

Cannery Row was fun. It reminded me a lot of Winnie the Pooh, actually. Like Mack and the gang are all gung-ho about doing something really nice for Doc, like throwing him a party or whatever, and that's what the drama is all about: getting a party together and how it becomes a disaster. I loved how he made the story (and characters) like the tides. Doc and Lee Chong always predicted Mack and the gang to f*ck anything and everything up, but they'd let them do it anyway. Accepting it as a natural and important part of Cannery Row. It was a great story.

Judge Based On Books Of Mice and Men/Cannery Row

A sweet yet at times hard read. The old self-preservation, noble good intentions, awful mistakes, the little moments of joy and the long, deep sorrows. So much humanity.

Beautiful writing with deep compassion as well as understanding of ordinary people.

Hard as it is to believe, John Steinbecks Of Mice and Men is part of the American Library Associations Most Challenged Books of the 21st Century. Way too often, small-minded people manage to wrangle just enough political power to do harm to those wiser than themselves, as is the case with those who strive to keep Of Mice and Men out of public and school libraries. They complain that the book is anti-business or that it condones euthanasia, or that it is filled with racial slurs and overtones.

4 and a half stars. This book contains two novellas by Noble Literature Laureate John Steinberg. I thoroughly enjoyed both but perhaps more Of Mice and Men. There are stronger themes than Cannery Row and of a more compelling story. Cannery Row has little quaint stories around several characters that eventually build to a plot around Mac and his mates trying to do something nice for an all-round swell guy, Doc.Of Mice and Men there is quite a poignancy and tenderness to the odd relationship

I liked of mice and men better than cannery row, it did not quite drew my attention. I am happy I am done with this book. Of mice and men had such a sad ending. Cruelly sad.

More great Steinbeck! My favorite.

Of Mice and Men. 5/5Cannery Row. 3/5
