Dreams
  1. American Dream
    1. What was the American Dream?
      1. "That dream of land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for every man, with opportunity for each according to his ability or achievement.' James Truslow Adams, 1931.
      2. Who had the American Dream?
        1. Crooks
          1. Candy
            1. Lennie & George
              1. George speaks in long, complex sentences to continue adding detail to their dream. This reflects how many times they've recited it and their desperation for it to be possible.
                1. George understands how it is unrealistic whereas Lennie is blissfully ignorant and naïve
                  1. Setting
                    1. Steinbeck uses fire to symbolise hope and darkness as foreboding of the reality. The quotation 'don't bulid up no more fire. We'll let her die down" portrays how George doesn't wan tto become attached to the dream as he knows it's futile.
                    2. The dream is recited like a bed time story: positive, hopeful and comforting. This emphasises the need for goals or ambitions in 1930s America.
                2. Achievement & Failure
                  1. Curley's Wife's Death
                  2. Other Dreams
                    1. Curley's Wife
                      1. Curley
                        1. Other Ranch Men
