As a teenager, he spent his summers working as a hired hand on neighboring ranches. In 1919, he enrolled at Stanford University,  he left without having earned a degree. he won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1962.
Steinbeck sets Of Mice and Men against the backdrop of Depression-era America. The economic conditions of the time victimized workers like George and Lennie, whose quest for land was thwarted by cruel and powerful forces beyond their control, but whose tragedy was marked, ultimately, by steadfast compassion and love. ]]> 2017-06-27 11:45:56 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544425 https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544669 Prezi]]> 2017-06-27 11:48:55 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544669 Gender Roles In the Old Days https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544759 2017-06-27 11:50:07 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544759 https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544835 2017-06-27 11:51:09 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177544835 ol_13isadav https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545001 2017-06-27 11:52:59 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545001 https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545119 2017-06-27 11:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545119 https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545158 2017-06-27 11:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545158 ol_13isadav https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545215 2017-06-27 11:56:01 UTC https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545215 Example https://padlet.com/zoe_ransom/4ybnallwww7h/wish/177545235 "…You go on get outta my room.
