<P> Two migrant field workers in California on their plantation during the Great Depression -- George Milton , an intelligent but uneducated man , and Lennie Small , a bulky , strong man but mentally disabled -- are in Soledad on their way to another part of California . They hope to one day attain the dream of settling down on their own piece of land . Lennie 's part of the dream is merely to tend and pet rabbits on the farm , as he loves touching soft animals , although he always kills them . This dream is one of Lennie 's favorite stories , which George constantly retells . They had fled from Weed after Lennie touched a young woman 's dress and would n't let go , leading to an accusation of rape . It soon becomes clear that the two are close and George is Lennie 's protector , despite his antics . </P>
