What is the setting of the book 'Of Mice and Men' by John Steinbeck?

It is set in the 1930's during the Great Depression. It is on a ranch in the Salinas Valley near the Salinas River, just south of Soledad in California. The novel opens with the major characters, George Milton and Lennie Small, camping for the night beside a pool along the banks of the Salinas River.

The following morning, the two hike to a nearby ranch, where they take up residence in the bunkhouse.

To be more specific, all 6 chapters of the story take place in the following 4 places, respectively: 1.

Outside of the ranch, clearing by the lake 2. Bunkhouse 3. Barn 4.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
