Steinbeck was satisfied with his novella about the struggles of two itinerant farm workers but he didn't expect the book to make any money. It ended up selling 117000 copies in less than a month. The story was originally intended for children and The Times called it a "fairy tale" in its review. The novella is now assigned to grade school students across the country as their first introduction to Steinbeck. Covici Friede unknown

1937115598New York: Covici-Friede 1937. First edition first issue with the word "pendula" present on page 9 and the dot between the 8's on p. 88 of Steinbeck's "marvelous picture of the tragedy of loneliness" Eleanor Roosevelt. Octavo original cloth. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. An exceptional example. John Steinbeck began Of Mice and Men as a children’s story. “Although the finished novelette does not seem appropriate for children—that intention was obviously abandoned—the simplicity of its style and the clarity and precision of its imagery may well have been prompted by this original purpose… †Benson 326. The result is “a sophisticated and artful rendering of the basic conflict between two worlds: between an idealized landscape and the real world with its pain and anguish†Literary History of the American West. "A thriller a gripping tale . . . that you will not set down until it is finished. Steinbeck has touched the quick" The New York Times. Covici-Friede hardcover
