OMAM Conflicts

There are many conflicts in the book Of Mice and Men. These conflicts help add to the plot because they show that the world is not a 2D thing. Just like if you make character 2D, they have no personality. The world is not 2D either. The world has problems and the conflict adds to the plot because it makes everything in the book more realistic and interesting, not just 2D. 

One conflict in the book is the conflict between Lennie and Curley. This is a Man vs. Man conflict. In the book it says "Curley sat down on the floor, looking in wonder at his crushed hand." This shows the conflict because earlier in the book Curley was always making fun of Lennie, so then now Lennie finally took action and broke Curley's hand. Man vs. Man conflict.

Another conflict in the book is the conflict that no one like Crooks. This conflict is Man vs. Society. In the book Crooks says "I ain't wanted in the bunkhouse..." This shows that since Crooks is black, no one excepts him for who he is. This is conflict because back then people did not accept black people that much so because of that Crooks has a hard life. Man vs. Society.
