Reflection

March 11

The novel "Of Mice and Men" in my opinion was an extraodinary novel that was extremely well written especially when it came to the descriptions! John Steinbeck turned the most simpliest things into  something beyond recognition in my daily life. How he described the hills, this changed my thoughts on how I looked at the hills and mountains in B.C . The novel itself gave me new ideas on how to describe more descriptively in the stories I write also on how to add more of a backbone to my stories rather then starting strong and slowly fading away from the story. Also to include the fact that John Steinbeck experienced most of the things he wrote about for example; Lennie was handicapped and Goerge put up with him even though Lennie made his life much more complicated. John himself worked with a handicapped person and yet put up with his handicapped co-worker so in result to me atleast it added more of a "oomph" to reading the story the fact that he experienced it just made me want to read the novel more! Overall the book itself is really really good even though literature novels aren't my thing.
