OF MICE AND MEN Clinging to each other in their loneliness and alienation, George and his simple-minded friend Lennie dream, as drifters will, of a place to call their own. But after they come to work on a ranch in the Salinas Valley, their hopes, like "the best laid schemes o' mice an' men," begin to go awry... CANNERY ROW "Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noice, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream." There, amid the sardine canneries, vacant lots, flophouses, and honky-tonks, Steinbeck assembled his most colorful gallery of characters--from Lee Chong, the grocer, to Dora Flood, proprietress of a bordello called the Bear Flag Restaurant.
