    Curley’s wife in Of Mice and Men is given a fairly one-dimensional portrayal throughout the novella‚ as her character stays‚ for the most part‚ enigmatic. The most obvious example would be her lack of a name. She is continually referred to as a possession of her husband and without a name she becomes almost insignificant. The author‚ however‚ drops hints throughout the book telling his audience that there may be more to Curley’s wife than what is easily deduced. One scene involving

    Steinbeck presents Curley’s wife as the only women in the ranch and because she doesn’t have a name it shows that she is not important and she is someone’s belonging.

    My response to the essay “I Want a Wife” by Judy Brady is that now I want a wife. In a nutshell she talks about a wife who cooks‚ cleans‚ works‚ and takes care of the children.

    Fedrigo’s Falcon and The Wife of Bath’s Tale were written by Boccaccio and Chaucer respectable. Both stories are told inside of their own larger story frames‚ each consisting of a group of people telling stories to each other.
