Of Mice and Men, is a work of fiction by John Steinbeck. Many critics argue that it suffers from one-dimensional characters and an excessively deterministic plot, which renders the lesson of the novella more important than the people in it.
John Steinbeck also wrote Tortilla Flat, In Dubious Battle, the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Grapes of Wrath, and more. In all, he wrote twenty-five books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books and several collections of short stories.
John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath," the fictional story of the Joad family's exodus from a Dust Bowl-ravaged Oklahoma farm to exploitation as itinerant workers in California, turns 75 this week. Find out more at Nola.com.
