Q

How does the cyclical structure of the Novella relate to the migrant workers?

A

The novella has a cyclical structure as it starts at Salinas river and ending at the same place, the Salinas river, indicating how George and Lennie began and ended where they had started which meant they they aren’t moving forward with their lives without achieving anything connoting how the migrant workers’ lives were monotonous and the lack of choice they had. This evokes the question, according to the American Dream, was the American dream really possible for every American that worked hard?
