“The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft a-gley” - Robert Burns
Next up on the Leabhar Hour podcast is 'Of Mice and Men' by John Steinbeck, as revealed in episode seven.
Steinbeck's 1937 novella is the third book in our 'Classics' section of the podcast after 'Animal Farm' and 'Fahrenheit 451'.
Synopsis:
"Two drifters - small, shrewd George and huge, simple-minded Lennie - get work on a ranch, planning to raise enough money to get a place of their own and live off the land, if George can save his childlike, bull-strong friend from getting into trouble."
Happy reading!
