Of Mice and Men

Reading Log 5 Setting One end of the great barn was piled high with new hay and over the pile hung the four- taloned Jackson fork suspended from its pulley. The hay came down like a mountain slope to the other end of the barn, and there was a level place as yet unfilled with the new crop... The afternoon sun sliced in through the cracks of the barn walls and lay in bright lines on the hay. There was the buzz of flies in the air, the lazy afternoon humming. (Steinbeck 84)

Reading Log 4 Setting ?Crooks, the Negro stable buck, had his bunk in the harness room; a little shed that leaned off the wall of the barn. On one side of the little room there was a square four-paned window, and on the other, a narrow plank door leading into the barn. Crooks? bunk was a long box filled with straw, on which his blankets were flung. On the wall by the window there were pegs on which hung broken harness in process of being mended... Crooks could leave his things about, and being a stable buck and a cripple, he was more permanent than the other men, and he had accumulated more possessions than he could carry on his back.?

Reading Log 2 Setting ?The bunkhouse was a long rectangular building. Inside, the walls were whitewashed and floor inpainted. In the three walls there were small, square windows, and in the forth, a solid door with a wooden latch. Against the walls were eight binks, five of them made up with blankets and the other three showing their burlap ticking. Over each bunk there was... a big square table littered with playing cards, and around it were grouped boxes for the players to sit on.? (Steinbeck 17)

Reading Log 6 Setting ?The deep green pool of the Salinas River was still in the late afternoon. Already the sun had left the valley to go climbing up the slopes of the Gabilan Mountains, and the hilltops... A water snake glided smoothly up the pool, twisting its periscope head from side to side; and it swam the length of the pool and came to the legs of a motionless heron that stood in the shallows. A silent head and beak lanced down and plucked it out by the head, and the beak swallowed the little snake while its tail waved frantically.? (Steinbeck 99)

Reading Log 1 Setting ?A few miles south of Soledad, the Salinas River drops in close to the hillside bank and runs deep and green. The water is warm too, for it has slipped twinkling over the yellow sands in the sunlight before reaching the narrow pool. On one side of the river the golden foothill slopes curve up to the strong and rocky Gabilan Mountains, but on the valley side the water is lined with trees? willows fresh and green with every spring, carrying in their lower leaf junctures the debris of the winter?s flooding; ... and with the split-wedge tracks of the deer to drink in the dark.?
