In Between The Line


Do you think George would have been a little more successful on his journey if Lenny was not with him?
• Yes, I feel as though that George would have been a little more focused and successful on his journey because Lenny is kind of like a distraction. He is in George’s way regarding the mouse situation, and if Lenny is hungry then that means whatever food George finds then he has to share or find for Lenny, and that goes for shelter too. Wherever George sleep then Lenny has to occupany him so therefore George has to make room for his friend

What interpretations give you the assumption that Lenny is having mental issues?
• Throughout the entire story I have noticed that Lenny has come across a little slow. Lenny had a dead mouse in his pocket. He may have thought it was sleep or something until George told him the bad news. He killed him by rubbing the mouse too hard and possibly suffocating the little animal.
