How come no one ever has the urge to stand up for them, to claim for what they deserve? Hank suggests that these humble men, “these poor ostensible freemen” (92), they have no idea what freedom really means. They’ve never experienced such freedom comparable to what Hank did in the modern world. In their naive and narrow mind, they believe the ways things are now are the ways they should be.

It may be represented in both books, however, it is represented in opposing stances. The Simple Gift frequently sees various characters sharing what little they have simply with the purpose of helping a fellow human who is desperately riddled with need. I interpret this generosity to be present because the characters lending their assistance know the pain and hardship of unacceptance and not belonging. For example, Old Bill knows the struggle of being entirely alone with nothing left but the haunting memories of a life left behind which is why he reaches out to Billy at the end of the novel. Billy recognises the weight of the gift saying “I knew that Old Bill was giving me more than these keys I held holding someone’s past in my dirty hands.” However, in The Island, the locals are incredibly apprehensive to extend any kind of generous gesture solely based on the Stranger's appearance.
You know he’s going to come back. S’pose you didn’t have nobody... a guy needs somebody.” We hear the sadness in Crooks’ tone and we know that he doesn’t have anybody. Crooks is a great example of what it is like if a person does not have anybody and they are lonely. This issue in the book is still relevant in today’s society as there is this fear about being alone and having no one. This novel shows the importance of relationships and how the people in the novel think about it.
They got each other to watch each other’s backs. This pair is almost like a brother relationship.

Although Lennie is very large and intimidating, he wouldn’t hurt a fly unless by accident.
All others will be annihilated. Hell does not exist.” Jehovah Witnesses do not belive that hell fire exist and that a loving God would punish his people by placing them in hell for enternity. However in our bible, it clearly states that drunks, sinners, and even adulterers will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Now moving on to the practices and traditions of the Jehovah witnesses. This religion doesn’t take part in any war, voting, blood transfusions, homosexuality, no use of crosses, no Easter Sunday, no premarital sex, no gambling or drinking ,no abortion and not even birthdays.
No matter what abilities God has blessed them with they are unable to showcase their personal strengths to the world. Kurt Vonnegut illustrates a civilization where everyone is mentally, physically, and socially equal in every way. Being a person in this story’s day and time, your mental state really doesn’t matter.

This was the complete opposite of the books ending because George didn’t care as much for killing Lennie as he did in the book. The themes were also different. For example, the friendship Lennie and George had. The two characters, George and Lennie, had a very trustful and kind relationship. In the book, George cared for Lennie and was always there for him.
dsad 10/16/12 Mrs. Adams English 5 Major Themes of OMM Friendship- Friendship isn’t something discussed during this novel. George and Lennie don’t really talk about why they are loyal to each other. They just stand by each other, and that’s that. It’s a rough time they had to be going through and all they had were each other, and though feelings aren’t talked about, you get the feeling that the men are very serious about their friendship. For George and Lennie, it’s different because they’ve known each other all their life and are the only things keeping either of them from being lonely and what is my next theme isolation.
