I want to make sure I answer what you meant. In Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men there are two different characters people often ask about and they’re easy to mix up:
- Curley’s wife (the unnamed woman on the ranch) — she is female and is often discussed by George, Lennie, Candy, Crooks, etc.
- The ranch boss (the older man who runs the ranch) — he is male and is a different character.
Which one do you mean? If you mean Curley’s wife, I will give 3 traits of her character and for each trait list three things George or Lennie say (with brief chapter references or paraphrases) that support that trait. If you mean the ranch boss, I’ll do the same for him.
Choose one and I’ll prepare the full answer with clear, step-by-step explanations and textual evidence.
