What do Crooks, Candy and Lennie all have in common that allows them to bond briefly in crooks' room? Posted by dreampup027 on Feb 17, 2008. |

I have always just accepted that they "belonged" to the hired man's club. They are all in the same boat...doing the work the rich guy's tell them to do. Posted by amy-lepore on Feb 17, 2008. |

They all are incomplete or broken workers. Candy is lacking a hand, Crooks' back is broken and Lennie is mentally deficient. They are de facto dependants on the system that allows them to survive. They are all incapable of standing alone. They are also social outcasts among the men. Lennie cannot communicate or function socially, Candy is elderly to the point of being marginalized and Crooks is a black man in a white man's world. Posted by jeff-hauge on Feb 17, 2008. |
