Section 3 Post

My topic to focus on today is foreshadowing. Section three was a section filled with information about different characters. We learn that Lennie and George have known each other since they were young, (I think kids). I was really surprised by this, I thought they met in adulthood!

However, we also learn some disturbing things about how George took advantage of Lennie which makes me see him in a whole new light. It also makes me feel so much worse for Lennie. I mean thanking a person who made him jump into a river and almost drown?! That puts things into tragic perspective for me.

I am scared that I might have seen some foreshadowing in section 3 as well. On page 40 George tells Slim, "If I tol' him to walk over a cliff, over he'd go." I am afraid that Lennie might do something really bad, and then George might tell him to kill himself, or leave, or walk of a cliff and he would.
