Character Analysis Of George Milton

George Milton is a round character, although he is a round character he is also static meaning he doesn't really change throughout the story. For example, to show he is a round character,"’Aw Lennie!’ George put his hand on Lennie’s shoulder.’I ain’t takin it away jus’ for meanness’" (Steinbeck 9). This verifies George showing kindness towards Lennie. He wanted Lennie not to feel sad about the mouse. Another way George has shown his emotions is when he killed Lennie,”The hand shook violently but his face set and his hand steadied” (Steinbeck 106). George displays his round emotion when he felt resent, sadness, and fear when he was forced to kill Lennie. George didn’t want to kill his best friend, but in the end he wanted Lennie to die happily.

George doesn’t change very much by the end of the book although Lennie’s death does impact him. For example,”We gonna get a little place”(Steinbeck 105). In the George knew the plan wouldn’t work though he held onto the idea. George’s mind-set stayed toward life getting better in beginning all the way through Lennie’s death. George cared for Lennie all the through the book, for example,”No Lennie. I ain’t mad. I never been mad”(Steinbeck 106). George was never truly mad at Lennie he was always just frustrated because Lennie wasn’t intelligent. George knew he had to take care of Lennie because he couldn’t take care of himself. He was very kind to lennie but did get frustrated with him and that never changed.
