“Of Mice & Men” - Section Four The Harness Room This section opens with a long description of the harness room, where Crooks, the stable buck, lives. (p.70-71) From this description, we get a detailed impression of the type of man Crooks is. On the next slide you will find a blank plan of the room, and a series of images showing some of the things that Steinbeck describes in the room. Drag and drop the images to create your own picture of the Harness Room.

Themes - The ‘Outsider’ “Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Themes - The ‘Outsider’ Many of the characters in the novel are ‘outsiders’ in some way. They don’t fit into ‘normal’ society, because they have characteristics that make them different from ‘normal’ people. On the next slides you will find images of these characters, with one idea about why that character is an ‘outsider’. To each picture, add several more reasons of your own. As you work on this activity, try to decide what point Steinbeck is making about people who are outsiders in our society.

Themes - The ‘Outsider’ “Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Themes - The ‘Outsider’ Candy - The Old Swamper He only has one hand and cannot work properly on the ranch.

Themes - The ‘Outsider’ “Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Themes - The ‘Outsider’ Curley’s Wife She is the only woman on the ranch.

Themes - The ‘Outsider’ “Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Themes - The ‘Outsider’ Lennie He is a huge man, who has incredible strength.

Themes - The ‘Outsider’ “Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Themes - The ‘Outsider’ Crooks He is not white, and thus automatically an outsider in this society.

“Of Mice & Men” - Section Four Extension Work Questions Why does Crooks have a room to himself? Try to think of more than one reason. Why do you think Crooks allows Lennie to come into his room? Again, try to think of more than one possible answer. How does the scene in the harness room relate to the theme of the outsider? Why does Crooks change his mind about joining the men on the ranch? (p.87)
