This really is a great guide not just for GCSE students like myself, but anyone who enjoyed the book and wants to think more about it. A simple and easy to understand explanation of some of the more complex issues and ideas raised in the book. A real help with exams and with generally understanding and enjoying the book more.
Of Mice and Men - GSCE York Notes Guide June 19, 2004
17 out of 19 found this review helpful
Ok, so when i first looked at my coursework title my mind was sent into a swirl on where it was i was suppose to start. You know the feeling, you've probaly got pages and pages of notes, or nothing at all. These guides i found to cover most of what was needed in my exam and coursework piece. By far the best study guides around. The language used is undastandable, it's cut up into clear, obvious sections, and they come up with them vital pieces of info needed to recieve them top grades.Of Mice and Men is an extremely deep and meaningful book, it's full of morals and steriotypes, which are protrayed quite simply in the book, yet it's possible to miss them. York notes picked up on EVERYTHING important in the book. From the lonleness of Crooks, Lennie and Curly's Wife, to revenge seeking Curly, and the simple minded Lennie. The book starts off my setting the scene, you get a picture of why the things in this books happened, mostly because of societies downfalls at the time, remember the book is written around the Great Depression. And ok, i know what you grade A students are thinking, you probaly wrekon your way to good at English to need these books. But i was a grade A student, and these books really helped me to achieve exceptional pieces of work and A* Grades. So swallow your pride and get one!

I bought this book a few days before my English Lit exam and it helped me considerably for preperation for the exam. The book has a summary of each chapter and a detailed insight into each chapter highlighting all of the important aspects of that chapter. Themes are very important in the story 'Of Mice and Men' and york notes covers it in maticulate detail. The most important part of the book is the importance of each character and this book covers every detailed needed. If your aiming from A* to C for GCSE English Lit this book is the best one to use.
