An example of an imagery quote in Of Mice and Men is:

"A few miles south of Soledad, the Salinas River drops in close to the hillside bank and runs deep and green. The water is warm too, for it has slipped twinkling over the yellow sands in the sunlight before reaching the narrow pool. On one side of the river the golden foothill slopes curve up to the strong and rocky Gabilan mountains, but on the valley side the water is lined with trees - willows fresh and green with every spring, carrying in their lower leaf junctures the debris of the winter's flooding; and sycamores with mottled, white, recumbent limbs and branches that arch over the pool."

~John Steinbeck, Of Mice and Men (Ch. 1, Page 1)

There are many examples of imagery in this book, because the author can really see everything he is writing. Imagery is just when the author gets descriptive in a part of the book.
