Of Mice and Men I believe that two of the most important characters in Of Mice and Men are Crooks and Curley’s Wife. This is because they do not just play a vital role in the œstoryline but they tell the audience so much about the society in which the book is set‚ how they were treated and the attitudes of other towards them.

I want a wife Published in 1971‚ “I want a wife” written by Judy Brady illustrates successfully the role of women in marriage. Brady humorously mentions a wife’s duties which range from doing chores and tasks‚ such as laundry and cooking‚ to take care of the husband’s mental‚ physical‚ social‚ and sexual needs.
