This is a self-contained study book which aims to lead the student through the section-by-section study of the novel Of Mice and Men within its social, historical and cultural context. It draws out key points, themes and characterization, and then looks at the novel as a structured whole through activities. Activities include taking part in a commission of enquiry investigating the social and economic conditions of the time from which Steinbeck drew his inspiration. The book can be used alone or alongside the Hodder English 4 course book, and offers comprehensive coverage of National Curriculum requirements for the study of literary texts at Key Stage 4. Activities and stimuli in the text help to generate written coursework for GCSE English.
