Loneliness is experienced in many ways by a multitude of people at one point or another in their lives. How it effects their personal situation is based upon how harshly this illness plagues them. John Steinbeck pants a vivid portrait of loneliness through the characters of Candy, Curly's Wife, and Crooks in his novel "Of Mice and Men". Loneliness can manifest itself both physically and emotionally through living a lifestyle that doesn't provide the opportunity for a solid relationship to form, creating lonely and alienated characters that migrate their way through life. In particular, Candy illustrates the repercussions experienced by an emotionally alone character; one who has no bond of friendship created with any person in the novel. Candy is an older man who has been working on the ranch for an extensive period of time and has always had his old farm dog to keep him company, "the old man squirmed uncomfortably" when asked about keeping the old dog for longer than necessary. He insisted that "[he] had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. [He] herded sheep with him", that it was inessential for his old farm dog to be put out of his misery. After it was decided that "[the...show more content...
"Crooks, the negro stable buck" is a man segregated from the others solely based on the colour of his skin, the novel is placed during the period of time when people of colour were discriminated against and considered to be of a lower social status than the average white man. Crooks, fitting into this category of segregation, is kept separate from the rest of the ranch hands and forced to live on his own in the barn. At one point in the novel, Lennie wanders over to Crooks' housing when he notices his light. Lennie, being the ignorant fool he is, doesn't understand why Crooks does not appreciate his presence.

Loneliness is ubiquitous. Almost everyone at one point in their lives has experienced loneliness. Loneliness could be from being isolated and too different from other people to interact, it could come after losing a companion or it could stem from being stuck with speaking only to certain people. In any case, the stipulation for being happy is company and when denied that requirement how far will people go? The book Of Mice and Men gives insight on to how loneliness changes people and the way they act. Crooks is one example of how loneliness can make people bitter and resentful. Curley's wife is an example of the lengths loneliness can make people go to. Crooks is a quintessential example of what happens when people are isolated. Crooks is...show more content...
Curley's wife's loneliness is from only being able to talk to Curley, a person who she doesn't like. This makes her not consider consequences when dealing with Lennie. On page 87, Curley's wife says quote, "You can talk to people, but I can't talk to nobody, but Curley. Else he gets mad." This shows how being isolated made her want to talk to someone so much that she did not think about how Lennie broke Curley's hand, how he killed a dog which was lying near them and how Lennie did not want to speak to her. Normally this would be enough to make someone go away, but the environment she's in is so isolated that this is better. Because she is married, she can only speak to Curley who only talks about fighting and is not nice and if she tries to talk to others she gets judged. Paradoxically, being married made her more isolated. This changes the way she acts because the only person who does not judge her is Lennie, which is what led to her death. Another example is how her name is never mentioned in the book. Every time she is brought up, there is a reminder that she is married to Curley and yet still lonely. This supports the message that loneliness can affect anyone and change the way that people

In Of Mice and Men by Steinbeck, shows a lot of characters that have loneliness. For example, there is Crooks. Crooks says, "Maybe you can see now. You got George. You know he's goin' to come back. S'pose you didn't have nobody. S'pose you couldn't go into the bunkhouse and play rummy 'cause you was black. How'd you like that? S'pose you had to sit out here an' read books.

He is powerless and afraid of the future. He does not go into town with the other men, and sees the inclusion in George and Lennie's dream as the only way out. "The old man [Candy] squirmed uncomfortably. "Well–hell! I had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. I herded sheep with him." He said proudly, "You wouldn't think it to look at him now, but he was the best damn sheep dog I ever seen." This is almost the exact same thing that George says about Lennie: he's "had him so long"(#56). But can you really be friends with a dog? Or someone who's way mentally inferior to you?Candy has had him for a long time he didn't want to get rid of him but they shot the dog.

Of Mice and Men: Friendship and Loneliness Peyton Willett Period 1 In John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men a man and his mentally slow best friend embark on the journey of life together. Their friendship is very strong and this is unusual due to the other characters in the book being very lonely. Every time the two men get a job Lennie makes a mistake and they are forced to leave. After all of their intense work they hope they can finally have their dream and get a place they can call their own. Between the two major themes of friendship and loneliness Steinbeck's novel is a success. One way he establishes the theme of loneliness is through the setting itself. Part one of the novel is set in a pleasant and peaceful river a few miles south of Soledad. The river comes off very remote and isolated. This is the complete opposite of where the rest of the book is mainly set. It is set on a ranch where George and Lennie the two main characters manage to find work. The ranch displays isolation mainly through the actions characters take and the events that happen. The characters in the novel also contribute to the understanding of the theme of loneliness.George and Lennie are like two halves, "The first man was small and quick, dark of face, with restless eyes and sharp strong features." George is the smaller of the two men but has taken care of Lennie for a while, since Lennie's Aunt Clara died and this highlights the theme of friendship. George gets Get more content
Loneliness is one of many central themes in John Steinbeck's classic novella, Of Mice and Men. Throughout the story many characters sought after the company and attention of others. Each character has a certain barrier that keeps them isolated from the outside world. Three characters who portray this loneliness throughout the novella are Crooks, Curly's wife, and Candy. Each having a different wall between them and society. To start off, one of the most isolated character is Curlys wife. Since she is the only woman on the ranch there is an extreme gender–divide. Nobody on the ranch will talk to her, including her husband. Because of this she tries to seduce and flirt with every guy she comes into contact with. She has what's called, "the...show more content...
Crooks is the stable boy, he is neat, likes books and is pretty quiet. He is also black, because of this he is discriminated be the other men at the farm. This prejudice leads Crooks to be extreme isolated, left to tend the horses alone. When Lennie tries to make friends with Crooks he reacts defensively, as the text states, "Crooks scowled, but Lennie's disarming smile defeated him. "Come on in and set a while," Crooks said. "'Long as you won't get out and leave me alone, you might as well set down." His tone was a little more friendly." This quote shows that since Crooks hasn't had any friends for so long that he almost can't deal with someone trying to be nice and interact with him. Thirdly, age differences are another factor that can lead to loneliness. Candy is the oldest man at the farm, his best friend, and only friend for the matter is his dog, which gets shot in the middle of the novella. Whilst Candy is friendly and helps out the other guys think he is a little strange. As the text states, "Candy interrupted him, "I'd make a will an' leave my share to you guys in case I kick off, 'cause I ain't got no relatives or nothing...." This quote shows that Candy does not have any other friends or relatives to give anything Get
Loneliness is an illness that can crush the human spirit. This sickness affects many of the emotionally devastated characters in John Steinbeck's novel, Of Mice and Men. This novel shows that all humans need companionship, or else they will become emotionally sick. Candy, the old and disabled swamper, is consumed with the loss of his only companion, his dog. Curley's wife, the only female on the ranch, is prohibited from talking to anyone. Isolated because of his skin color, Crooks wastes away alone in his room because no one talks to him. Without companionship, loneliness spreads across the ranch like a disease. The effects of isolation on Crooks becomes clear when he confides in Lennie during a private moment in his room. Lennie's mental retardation and short attention span gave Crooks the confidence to bare himself without fear of embarrassment. After tearing...show more content...
Her husband, Curley, is very possessive of her, as if she is his property. He wants all the men on the ranch to know that he has something valuable that they are not allowed to associate with. He prohibits his wife to socialize with all of the other men: therefore she has no companions. Since she is so lonely, she is always seeking attention. This over–the–top appearance shows her desperation to be noticed: she cannot make any connections with the men on the ranch, the only people she ever comes in contact with, because Curley controls her and does not allow that. The loneliness in her is shown clearly when she says, "Wha's the matter with me... Ain't I got a right to talk to nobody? (Steinbeck 86). She feels so lost that she does not even know who she is anymore. Also, the lack of a name suggests her disconnection from everyone on the ranch and that she does not have her own identity. She had hopes and dreams of being an actress and being with people, but instead she is stuck on the farm with all men who fear the boss's son, who can fire them at any

Loneliness is a dominant theme in the novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. The characters George Milton, Candy, Crooks, and Curley's Wife are all very lonely and are searching for someone or something to serve as a companion in their life. In the novel, John Steinbeck uses the theme of loneliness as a shield of protection. Many people in life choose to become lonely and distant from everyone and everything because they are scared of having feelings of love and care.
In the novel Of Mice and Men, George is one of the main characters who is very lonely in the reader's eyes. Yes, he has his best friend, Lennie Small, but due to mental disabilities, Lennie cannot offer much. George cannot talk to Lennie they way he could with someone without disabilities. ...show more content...
Crooks is an African American stable buck who is mistreated every day on the ranch. One of the major reasons why he fits this theme well is because he is not allowed to sleep in the bunkhouse with all the other white men who also work on the ranch. He has his own bedroom in the barn that is filled with objects to keep him occupied. For example, books. He has a wide selection of all kinds of books that he reads so keep him busy. Crooks is not allowed to play in any card games or horseshoe tournament events that the men have or even stay in the same building with the other men. The other men on the ranch do not talk to him either for things other than work because of his color. Throughout John Steinbeck's novel, Of Mice and Men, the theme of lonely is expressed through four of the main characters. George is lonely because he cannot settle down and have the family he wants. Candy is lonely mainly because of his physical disabilities. Curley's Wife is lonely because of her substandard failing marriage. Crooks is lonely because of the discrimination against the color of his skin. All of these characters in the novel experience lonely in their own

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck is book of many themes; one that is very prominent is loneliness. Loneliness is common in many people's lives and that is also true for the lives of the characters of the book. Almost all characters in the book are lonely in one way or the other. The main characters of the book are George and Lennie. Even though these two seem to have each other, they are both lonesome in a way. Lennie's mental retardation isolates him from many people. George is the only person he can spend time with and many times their relationship is more then just friendship, but dependency.

Loneliness has devoured Crooks and he spends the majority of his time alone working or reading, but these things cannot be a substitute for human companionship. The last character in the book that struggles against loneliness is Curley's wife. Because of Curley's jealousy he wants her to stay inside the house at all times, which leads her to being alone and longing for the days before she married Curley. "I get lonely," she said. "You can talk to people, but I cannot talk to nobody but Curley. Else he gets mad at me." (91) Curley's wife tries to combat her loneliness by flirting with the other workers, but when they plainly turn her down in order to stay out of trouble, it just further adds to her loneliness. All in all, it can certainly be said that loneliness is one of the central themes on which Of Mice and Men is built. Just like people today, the characters deal with difficulty dealing with and struggling against loneliness. Each character searches for companionship, because as Crooks said, "A guy needs somebody – to be near him. A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. Don't make no difference who the guy is, long's he's with you. I tell ya, I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick."

George and Lennie go to work on a ranch in order to reach their American Dream. Along the way they meet many characters, including Curley and his wife, Candy, Crooks, and Slim. All of these characters have been negatively affected by loneliness. In Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, Curley's wife, Crooks, and Candy are depicted as lonely and depressed characters who search for someone or something to rid them of their loneliness and make them feel jovial, though they are unsuccessful. Once George and Lennie get settled in on their new job, they meet the head skinner of the ranch named Slim, although he isn't particularly lonely, he contributes to the idea of loneliness turning people shallow and mean.

Honors English 9 10 March 2014 Of Mice and Men Literary Analysis Essay on Loneliness "Actually, feeling lonely has little to do with how many friends you have. It 's the way you feel inside. Some people who feel lonely may rarely interact with people and others who are surrounded by people but don 't feel connected" (Karyn Hall 2013). Truthfully, loneliness is something almost all people fear. It 's a deeper feeling then just being isolated. It 's feeling distant or disconnected from others. Loneliness is so much more than just feeling secluded, it 's feeling rejected by society, or even like an outcast.

He tells George that he does not have any relatives, so he would be able to give all of his money to him and Lennie. That is if they let him in on their dream to buy their own house. This shows just how bad Candy wants to get out of that ranch and that he will do anything to not be lonely. Loneliness is shown through Candy because he feels like he does not belong and because he has no other friends except his dog, so he feels secluded from the others. An additional character who portrays loneliness throughout the book is Curley 's Wife. She feels lonely and isolated because nobody wants to be around her in fear of Curley seeing them with her, so she thinks that she has no one to talk to; this leads to a deep, fathomless feeling of loneliness. When she finally does find someone she can talk to, she mainly talks about how she hates the ranch because nobody ever talks to her. Another favorite topic of hers is to talk about how lonely she is all of the time. "–Sat 'day night. Ever 'body out doin ' som 'pin. Ever 'body! An ' what am I doin '? Standin ' here talkin ' to a bunch of bindle stiffs–a nigger an ' a dum–dum and a lousy ol ' sheep–an ' likin ' it because they ain 't nobody else" (Steinbeck 78). This is the part of the novella when the reader stops thinking of Curley 's Wife as a "tart" (Steinbeck 28) who "gives the eye" (Steinbeck 28) to every man she sees; rather,

Loneliness in "Of Mice and Men" Friends are needed in a person's life for emotional stability whom without would lead to a life of loneliness and solitude. In the novel, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, the characters Crooks, Candy and Curly's wife exhibit a form of loneliness. They are driven to George and Lennie's friendship because they lack support and that emotional stability in their own lives."A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. Don't matter no difference who the guy is, longs he with you. I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an he gets sick" (Steinbeck, 13).

People are considered to be social beings, yet, again and again, they seek to falsify the claims of civility, and show themselves as the detached individuals they tend to be. In his novella, "Of Mice and Men," John Steinbeck designed several faulty pairings that display the true disparity and detachment that are proven to be a part of every relationship in the story. Through the associations of the main characters, Lennie and George, along with several other characters within the narrative, Steinbeck exposes the root of 1930's relationships in promises, loneliness, and a basic need for companionship, rather than any true fondness– a junction that can easily be nullified. No relationship can be expected to prosper when it is based on responsibility,...show more content...
This attachment is made towards Lennie by both Crooks and Curley's wife. They take advantage of Lennie's disability, and use him to assuage their solitude. Curley's wife complains to Lennie of her isolation while in the barn, saying, "I get lonely,'(...) 'You can talk to people, but I can't talk to nobody but Curley. Else he gets mad." (Steinbeck, 87) She establishes outright that she is lonely, and uses that to persuade Lennie to speak to her. This was, however, unhealthy because she didn't actually care about Lennie. When he stayed with her, she only talked about her past, and vented her issues, without a care for Lennie. In the same fashion, Crooks also chose to ignore any emotional needs that Lennie may have, preferring to speak only to alleviate his loneliness. When Lennie comes to Crooks' room, Crooks is so desperate for another person to talk to–for a chance to be social–that it doesn't matter to him that his words fall on deaf ears. He revels in the company, explaining, "So it don't mean nothing, see? You couldn't remember it anyways. I seen it over an' over– a guy talkin' to another guy and it don't make no difference if he don't hear or understand."(Steinbeck, 71) This encounter between Crooks and Lennie affirms the fact that theirs isn't a symbiotic relationship. Crooks is fueled by his need for human contact, and it makes absolutely no difference to him what Lennie feels or thinks. He is dependent on Lennie's defective brain for assurance that he can just talk without having to worry, though a healthy relationship should include mutual understanding and care. Isolation is evidently not best relieved through a flimsy form of
Mother Theresa once said, "Loneliness and feeling that nobody needs you is the worst kind of poverty". The novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck has some very important themes. Loneliness is one of the major themes that is portrayed by almost every character in the book in some way. Race, age and gender are some of the key factors that make the characters lonely. In Of Mice and Men, different variations of loneliness can be seen through Crooks, Candy and Lennie. The first character that portrays the theme of loneliness on the ranch is Crooks. He is the only black man which causes him to be lonely. Crooks lived in the harness room off the side of the barn in which he worked and tended to the animals (Steinbeck 66). Crooks was not even allowed...show more content...
He is lonely in a different way though, mentally. He is rarely able to understand anyone and they are rarely able to understand him. At the beginning of the book Lennie is so offended by George's remark about being annoying, Lennie says, "If you don' want me I can go off in the hill an' find a cave. I can go away any time" (Steinbeck 16). Lennie take George's remark literally because he does not understand sarcasm and how George really did not mean what he said. Lennie is not able to understand things on his own and he needs George to explain everything to him. When Lennie walks into Crooks' room, "Lennie smiled helplessly in an attempt to make friends" (Steinbeck 68). Even though Lennie travels and works with George, he still feels alone because of the lack of understanding between the two. When he is talking to Crooks, Crooks says, "Sometimes he talks, and you don't know what the hell he's talkin' about" (Steinbeck 70). Even Crooks realizes how lonely Lennie is because he cannot comprehend what is going on most of the time. Lennie is on another level of loneliness than Crooks and Candy. He is not understood and he cannot understand anything that is going on around him. This makes him mentally isolated from everyone else who can comprehend things Get more content
Loneliness is a part of life that no one can escape. Whether it's physical or emotional loneliness, everyone has felt it. The feeling of emptiness and isolation is very common and inevitable. In the novel, Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck presents the theme of loneliness in a very prominent way throughout the entire book. Loneliness is portrayed mainly through three characters, which are Candy, Curley's wife, and Crooks. The old swamper named Candy is an example of loneliness because of the way his disability affects his life. He said, "When they can me here I wisht somebody'd shoot me. But they wont do nothing like that. I wont have no place to go." (60, Steinbeck). Candy doesn't have any family and now he doesn't even have his dog to keep

You ain't no good now, you lousy tart'" (95). Once Candy had realized that the future he hoped vanished, he reacted by vituperating the corpse. His woefulness and realization that he will be alone again urged him to become cruel. Crooks proves the idea that loneliness leads to cruelty through his thoughts and actions. "A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. Don't make no difference who the guy is, long's he's with you. I tell ya,' he cried, "I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick"' (72). Crooks is knowledgeable on the fact that lonely man turns into a crazy man. He knows this through his personal experiences. He grew up on a farm his old man had owned. His father hated the fact the Crooks played with the white kids.. So Crooks had a lonely childhood, wanting to play with other kids but never could. Crooks wanted to show Lennie how he feels by telling him that George has left him. Telling him that he found someplace else to stay, or that he got killed. Lennie endeavors to gainsay it, but Crooks keeps pressuring the noetic conception into him until he visually perceives the peril in the situation. Albeit, he did find regalement in the tortuous situation. Once Lennie subsided, Candy came in to talk to Lennie about the dream. Crooks is baffled. He always thought that their type of dream could never transpire. "You're nuts. I seen hundreds of men come by...every damn one of 'em's got a little piece of land in his head.

Loneliness plays a large role in developing themes and characters throughout the novel Of Mice and Men. Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, is a story about the lives of most American workers during the Great Depression. The story follows two friends, George and Lennie, as they try to get enough money to buy their own piece of land in Salinas, California, which seems like an impossible dream. Along the way, George and Lennie meet many other workers struggling with a common problem, loneliness. Throughout the story, it is made clear that everyone is lonely and is longing for companionship, even though no one can truly find friendship in the harsh world they live in. Three of the loneliest characters in the novel are Candy, Curley's Wife, and Crooks. One of the loneliest characters in Of Mice and Men is Candy. Candy is a tall old man who works on the farm as a swamper because he lost his hand in an accident. Like most characters in the book, Candy is lonely for multiple reasons. Proof of this is when in Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, when Candy says,"I'd make a will an' leave my share to you guys in case I kick off, cause I ain't got no relatives nor nothing"(59) The quote shows that Candy has no relatives left, probably due to his old age. Candy is also shown to have no friends other than his dog, which was shot in the back of the head by one of the other ranch workers. Candy's dog was his only companion, other than George and Lennie, who he just met. He was so desperate for friendship that he was willing to give complete strangers all of his money, just to make friends and look forward to a better future. While Candy was very lonely, there were many other characters dealing with loneliness throughout the book. Curley's Wife was another extremely lonely character in the novel. She is described as a beautiful lady who is often called a "tramp" or a "tart" by the workers on the ranch. Even though she does not tend to show her loneliness, she did confide in Lennie towards the end of the book, expressing how lonely she actually felt. In the novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, Curley's Wife states,"I get lonely...You can talk to people, but I can't talk to nobody but Curley. Else he gets mad"(87) This
