Themes of mice and men

  The book of mice and men is pretty much boring, but the movie is very much interesting which was the good part about actually studying Of mice and men. There were many themes that were in the movie. The theme i chose to talk about is Fraternity of brotherhood which is pretty much a theme in the real world.

   

    Fraternity of brotherhood, this theme is very common in the real world where as though there would be a real tight bond between a group of boys or maybe just two. Where they feel they can trust each other with any and everything. But in of mice and men the fraternity of brotherhood is not as tight as it is in the real world. Its all about betrayal and lies(which happens very often for example, when Lennie kills Curley's wife by a mistake no matter how close everyone were they still was gonna kill Lennie if it was the last thing they did. Even though most of them knew he never does anything on purpose, everyone knew how sweet and nice he was and he would never hurt anyone unless he had reason to do so or unless George told him it was okay. With George knowing everything about him and knew Lennie longer than he knew anyone and how he truly is inside and out, he still betrayed him by not helping him escape but by killing him instead even though they considered each other as family.

   

   Now that I have explained my point to why i think Fraternity of brotherhood is the most common theme in the book and in the real world  because its not all it is cracked up to be. The meaning of Fraternity of brotherhood does not portray in the real world or the movie. No matter how tight you are with somebody in a Fraternity they will always betray you one way or another.
