Query: Locker Room

The John Steinbeck novella, "Of Mice and Men", was depressing and boring. I did not agree with the mentality of the characters, nor did I agree with everyone in my 8th grade class liking Lennie. Although he is sweet and has the sense of a young child, he still is a destrucitve force in the world and, although he is slighty retarted, he is insane. Steinbeck shows us this when Lennie waits for George in the brush and starts talking to his dead Aunt Clara and a huge rabbit. I have nothing against retared or insane people, but how could you like him? He kills things, wether on accident or not. Also, I found the "Locker Room" mentality kind of distrubing. Yes, people in locker rooms do talk that way, but, I think that is was wrong for the book. All the swearing and talking of whorehouses were all alittle too real. When I read I want to get away from the world, not read about it!
