There were many themes in Mice and Men but I've decided to talk about one that was most interesting to me, brotherhood. Now in Of Mice and Men brotherhood is sort of the main theme between the men on the farm and especially George and Lennie. Being that they are on a farm brotherhood would be a key factor because on a farm what you have to do is work together to get the job done. But in the case of George and Lennie they are working togehter to live a dream in living on their own acres of land where Lennie gets to tend the rabbits.
George and Lennie has been together for quite sometime now being that Lennie's aunt died. George has sort of been a big brother to Lennie taking him from town to town, finding them jobs, all in the pursuit of their dream. This is the perfect example of brotherhood. Being that one man takes the responsibility of another man and puts the load on their shoulders while trying to fulfill a dream. Well I don't know about you but I don't think brotherhood can get any better than this, this is the best of the best. I know I wouldn't do this in a million years but George sure did thats why him and Lennie is my theme for brotherhood.
To sum up even though Lennie had a mental disability George stilled put up with him through all his troubles and stayed with him when he could've kicked him to the curb. George and Lennie had a nice brotherhood even though it had to be cut short with George shooting Lennie they had a nice life and maybe George still would live the dream not just for himself but also for Lennie.
