Of Mice and Men When does the reader gain an early indication of Lennie's problem? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 10:23 Last updated by Jill W on 10 Dec 16:37
The reader becomes aware of Lennie's disability early in the story. First, with the death of the mouse; second, when George chastises him for the episode in Weed, and also.... when George warns Lennie not to talk to the Boss.
