Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
1) George and Lennie are two migrant workers looking for work. They find a job and at first are reluctant because Lennie was turned off by the bosses mean son, Curley. They end up staying and liking it quite a bit, but Lennie accidentally kills Curley's wife. He flees and runs to the spot George told him about and George lets Lennie die peacefully by shooting him while calming him down.
2) The theme is the importance of friendship. It is demonstrated throughout the story by George. No matter how frustrated he would get, he was always there for Lennie.
3) The tone is sad and depressing. Two best friends are separated forever because of one simple mistake.
