If these whitewashed walls could talk...
Today in Of Mice and Men, three important events occurred as the men sat in the bunkhouse: Candy's dog was shot, Candy, George and Lennie decided to buy their dream ranch, and Curley attacked Lennie. Select one of these events and write about how Steinbeck created mood/tone of the scene. Explain how this scene made you feel.(The deadline to post a response to this question is midnight, Friday, December 2, 2011.)
When Candy's dog was shot Steinbeck created a feeling of suspense. He wrote that Carlson's footsteps grew silent, and the silence came into the room. And the silence stayed. By saying this Steinbeck made the reader feel the suspense that all of the men were feeling waiting to hear the shot of the gun.
