Chapter two consists with George and Lennie get downing work at a new farm. They meet the other ranch workers and the boss’s aggressive boy Curley. and besides his married woman who comes into the bunk house and flirts with George an Lennie. Equally shortly as Lennie glimpses at Curley’s married woman. he is immediately attracted to her and George is worried by this. George makes Lennie promise to run into him by the pool if there is any problem. For illustration. in weed when Lennie felt the small girls frock. Another character they meet is slender. he is in charge of the Equus caballuss and besides he is a adult male with natural authorization. There are two separate manners of composing in of mice and work forces ; descriptive manner and duologue. The duologue in ‘Of Mice and Men’ is really realistic. Steinbeck tried to copy the manner the ranch workers spoke. He could hold had George say ( page35 ) ’ I have seen adult females like this before. but I have ne’er seen one every bit worse as a adult female that has been put in gaol. ’ As it is. he has George say ‘ I seen’ em toxicant before. but I ne’er seen no piece of gaol come-on worse than her. ’
The linguistic communication of Steinbeck’s characters is written down in a manner that allows you about to hear the characters speech production and besides their actions. Steinbeck spells words that reflects how illiterate some of the characters are. He besides spells words like that. to reflect how they sound in the oral cavities of ordinary people non how the words appear in a dictionary. One of the techniques Steinbeck used was to go forth the beginning and stop off words. For illustration Steinbeck writes “an” for “and” . “jus” for “just” . “ gon na ” for “going to make something. . ” Steinbeck tends to get down a chapter in a descriptive manner. he frequently incorporates the natural beauty of the scene and the birthrate of the land. ( chapter 1 ) ‘ a few stat mis south of Soledad. the Salinas River drops in stopping point to hillside bank. ’ whereas in this chapter. a description of the bunk house is given. it lacks comfort. ‘ Inside the walls were whitewashed and the floor unpainted. ’ This is a amylum contrast with the old scene.
The elaborate description of the scene is ever the topographic point in which the action happens. In the fresh tenseness is created through a series of baleful marks. I have noticed a peculiar order in which it is created in. Anger. so a calmer ambiance which is so broken by choler. fury or confusion. Tension. anxiousness and fury is created when Curley ( the boss’s boy ) enters the room. ‘he glanced coldly’ this suggests that he is unfriendly and a menace. ‘ he stiffened his fists…his glimpse was at one time ciphering and hard-bitten. ’ when Curley stiffened his number ones. this showed that he was looking for a battle. the readers already know that he is an aggressive character and confronts people with this. ‘
He hates large cats. He’s alla clip picking garbages with large cats. Kind of like he’s mad at’em because he aint a large cat. ’ The readers all of a sudden realise that there would be a hereafter job with Lennie and Curley. further on in the novel. Curley seems set on turn outing that he is a large adult male. in all but size. His success in the yesteryear as a pugilist is an compulsion. so every individual Curley meets is a possible opposition. He sees life and everyone he faces as a competition. Curley’s authorization on the spread triggers tenseness as most of the spread custodies are frightened of him and make non desire to face him as there would be problem. During chapter two. my understanding fell towards the stable vaulting horse. Crook.
He is a victim of racial bias. the manner Candy gossiped about Crook to George and Lennie was unfair. they would usually mention to Crook as ‘the nigger’ . Nowadays that is a racial offense. They manner Candy said that Crook has no regard he was the lowest of the low. ‘Nice chap excessively. Get a crooked back where a Equus caballus kicked him. The foreman gives him hell when he’s mad. But the stable vaulting horse don’t give a darn about that. ’ Despite Crook being discriminated against. he is a proud. independent and intelligent as he reads a batch. But none of these admirable characteristics stop the foreman from giving him ‘hell’ . As he is non a respected character and he has no authorization.
