Candy wants his piece of land and release himself from the pressure of land
owner.
“Reality is one of the possibilities I cannot afford to ignore”.
“Leonard Cohen”
Consequently? George didn’t have any private land. Lennie didn’t
have any rabbits. Any tours on the world became true for Curley's wife. And
everlasting loneliness went on for Crooks. And Candy stayed under pressure
of land owner without his piece of land. In this story people faced with life’s
reality, the people understood that their dream would never come true. How
reality throws dreamers from heavens to the land. For being one hundred
percent precisely reality shoots dreamers wings, and they sharply crash
down and hit to the land, forever remaining cripples, if they could survive or
being dead. The only happy person in this story was Lennie. He lived, to the
last breath cherishing his dream and shining from understanding that in his
life there is a person who will always be with him
and that person will never
betray him. Who knows who is happy and who is unhappy. Fools are always
much more happier rather than others. It is such injustice to the relation of
other people, understanding life’s reality and living with its truth, hurts and
make life unbearable.
In this book touched many different and main points, but most
important point, for my opinion is the point of unattainable dream. George
and Lennie have so great dreams of the farm, of chickens and rabbits that
literally infected with their dream of all around and
give the light of hope to
the people who forget what is dream, let it be unreal, let it be utopian but
such sweet. And one more important point in the play was friendship
between George and Lennie. In the world, where people stand just for
themselves, such kind of relations as rare diamond in mountains. Exactly this
feature distinguishes them from mice. Ability of being friend and ability to
have dreams. And one of the main factor that makes man a man it’s his
dreams.
The great depression, the crippled destinies, ruin, poverty, all these
presses on
the person soul and character, kills in person a lot of things, but
only not dream of happiness. Dreams help to live, survive, they give
pleasure, give strength of mind in difficult minutes. We always wait for
something best. They rescue, and sometimes dreams make wonders.
Immortal dreams make a person to believe something perfect, it isn’t matter
it can be transfer into reality or not but it’s something that keep a person
alive. Dreams are as the talkative birds that never stop talking.
Writers, poets of all times differently treated to dreams and hopes.
Some writers considered them as the best human features that keep the light
of candle fire and
heat the person hart forever, and some writers the highest

evil that push the people from mountains of reality. However all writers
come to one conclusion about dreams. When dreams disappear, there start
emptiness. Hope, having hidden in heart, gives the chance to be happy even
among misfortunes. The human nature such is that hides the hopes and
dreams of people at heart, cherishes them and to the
last believes that they by
all means will come true. Reading literature we meet the subject of hope
quite often, as well as in life. Dreams are the things that make us strong, give
us
stimulus
to continue our way without stopping and battling with all
existed problem. It isn’t important who you are, you are Black Crooks, the
old man with physical problems or simply the worker wandering from one
farm to another. If you still human being if you yet not a mouse, you dream
of happiness.
Steinbeck touched the theme of discrimination, he shows this very
professionally and fulfilled
the work with details, being black and its
elements that was shown with different forms and consequences that
described thanks to the character Crooks. And touching this extremely
gracefully concerns such difficult question as racism. Great disclosure of
important subjects, by their relatedness to the main narrative line, is the
highest ability which Steinbeck reached. Steinbeck easily opened the
unattractive, anti-humane party of society that carries the name of racial
discrimination. The man thinking that being
black is the reason of his
loneliness. Rasizm and isolation just being black, his physical problems
makes him unbearable indifferent to the world and makes him pessimist.
Especially reading the Crooks’ words and regrets, some people can
feel him or herself in his skin. Isolation from other people, being tired from
loneless. Even he could envy the man Lennie who was bitten by life cruelly,
of course shows that how Crooks was unhappy. Crooks chaffs Lennie
knowing that he had mental problems, saying
that George would leave him
alone and irritated him and Lennie felt himself how unprotectable child and
became aggressive. Crying that such kind of things impossible, that George
will never leave him. Crooks told him that George would never come back
or something could happen with him or he could die. Lennie got angry and
said that George was strong enough to stay alive. Lennie’s strong believe to
George never dies. Crooks mentions that being alone is the hardest thing of
the world and it’s better to have someone with you and it isn’t matter who is
she or he, the person is good or bad,
cleaver or stupid, just the human that
cares about you and feel the hand that holds you hand even in troubles and
happy moments. Crooks aggression comes through his broken life that
creates for him narrow life without future without hope, his thoughts became
as black as his skin and discriminates him from his inner world.
