Some of my impressions of Curley wife was that it first mentioned in relation to Curly‚ as candy mentions Curly’s attitude has worsened since his marriage. Candy then goes on to say " she got the eye"‚‚ before describing her at the end before he leaves the bunker house as a "tart". Later‚ when she comes into the bunker house looking for Curley‚ she talks "playfully" then smiled "archly".So‚ from this first introduction to her‚ she is depicted as a flirt‚ a tease and someone who wants attention from

One of the ways Steinbeck shows Curley’s Wife as a villain is by portraying her as a tart. In chapter two‚ Candy quotes “Well‚ I think Curley’s married . . . . A tart.” In this chapter she is presented negatively‚ he uses his context to show she is a trouble maker and an attention seeker.

Her fingernails

Many people tend to experience loneliness at least one point in their life; sometimes it makes a huge impact. In John Steinbeck’s book “Of Mice and Men”‚ one of my many obvious characters that experience loneliness is Crooks. Crooks is lonely because he is African American‚ he distances himself from the other men‚ and he comes off a bit too strong. One of the reasons he is lonely is because he is African American during the 1930’s. “’Cause I’m black. They play cards in there‚ but I can’t play because
