Chapter 4 Notes


Prediction:  I think George may decide to leave Lennie also Lennie will become friends with Crook but people are going to frown upon it.

Summary:  While every one except Crook, Lennie, and Candy decided to go to the bar. When Lennie see a light while on a walk to see the puppies he walk towards the light and finds a new character named Crook alone away from everyone else when he comes in and begins talking, Crook wonders why a white man would associate with him because he is black and after getting all the information from Lennie, Crook decides to just let him stay. After talking a bit they get on the subjects of the rabbits than Candy joins them and later on Curley's wife. She asked them have they seen Curley. After they talk a little more Curleys wife begins to make fun of them for hanging out with Crook and they just tell he to leave because they're not up for trouble. The boys soon come back and George looks for Lennie after that they leave and go to the bunkhouse.

Connection:  I feel like I can relate to the new character Crook because he is kind of an outcast because no one wants to be around him and they exclude him from the others because he has a different nationality. I can understand the feeling to a certain point. I know how it feels to be alone but I honestly don't know how it feels to be excluded because of my color.
