George Milton is decribed as “small and quick, dark of face, with restless eyes and sharp, strong features. Every part of him was defined: small, strong hands, slender arms, a thin and bony nose.” (Steinbeck, Of Mice and Men 2). George watches after Lennie Small.

Like Lennie, George can be defined by a few distinct characteristics. He is short-tempered but a loving and devoted friend, whose frequent protests against life with Lennie never weaken his commitment to protecting his friend.

In Of Mice and Men, George and Lennie are planning to buy a farm of their very own. They have dreams to plant a garden and have fresh vegetables. They also plan to raise rabbits. Lennie is especially fond of the idea of raising rabbits.

In the novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, George and Lennie work hard, but in the end, their dreams didn’t come true. They both have a dream of owning a small farm with land and animals, where no one’s in charge of them and they can do what they want.

Alone in the bunkhouse, George thanks Slim for giving Lennie a pup. But one day, George told Lennie to jump into the Sacramento River, which Lennie did, even though he couldn’t swim. Lennie nearly drowned before George was able to pull him out, and since then, no more jokes.

Angry, Curley accuses Lennie of laughing at him and starts to punch him; Lennie panics but does not react until George shouts at him to fight back. Lennie grabs Curley’s hand and crushes it.

He wears a glove and coats his hand with vaseline to keep it soft for his wife. Curley clearly worries that his wife might not find him attractive. One of the ranch hands says of Curley’s wife, “she got the eye.” Even though she was just married to Curley, she is flirtatious with other men on the ranch.
