‘Well. tell you what. Curley's like a lot of little guys ‘Well . . . tell you what. Curley's like a lot of little guys. He hates big guys. He's alla time picking scraps with big guys. Kind of like he's mad at 'em because he ain't a big guy. You seen little guys like that, ain't you? Always scrappy?’ (2.91)

Curley Inherited power Defined by his appearance He's married to a woman he wants to control and can't For Curley, sexual power is a way to show his masculinity He shows his strength other ways—like, by picking on the slow and weak Lennie

Curley comes to the bunkhouse looking for his wife. Curley tries to pick a fight with Lennie. Curley comes to the bunkhouse looking for his wife. Again. Curley goes to the barn to find Slim, who he suspects is… with his wife. Curley comes back to the bunkhouse (yet again). Curley gets mad when Carlson calls him a coward. He sees Lennie smiling and starts punching the big guy (big mistake). Curley gets his hand thoroughly messed up by Lennie Small. Curley promises not to tell what really happened to his hand. He gets taken to the doctor. Despite the fact that he is married, Curley goes to Suzy’s bordello. He plays horseshoes until Candy tells him about his wife’s death. Curley looks at his dead wife and says he will shoot Lennie – preferably in the guts. Curley leads the band of men in the search for Lennie. He is the first to discover George with Lennie’s dead body. Curley, ever observant, notes that George shot Lennie right in the back of the head. Curley looks on with Carlson in puzzlement at Slim and George’s sadness.

‘the meanness and the plannings and the discontent and the ache for attention were all gone from her face. She was very pretty and simple, and her face was sweet and young. Now her rouged cheeks and her reddened lips made her seem alive and sleeping very lightly.’ (5)

Curley’s Wife She's a good-looking woman who knows it, wearing makeup, form-fitting dresses, and ostrich-feathered high heels As the only woman on the ranch, her life is lonely, and Curley isn't much company Or is she just ‘trouble’? She flirts deliberately with the ranch hands, to make sure they suffer Curley's hot-headed, glove-wearing wrath and to make Curley feel even worse about himself Just like Curley, she seeks out people who are smaller and weaker to make herself feel better At every opportunity, she talks about her lost opportunities Curley's wife's obsession with herself ultimately leads to her death

Timeline Curley’s wife comes by the bunkhouse and does a bit of flirting with George, Lennie, and any other males within viewing range. Curley’s wife comes into Crooks’s room because she’s lonely. She tries talking to Lennie, Crooks, and Candy, but they want her to leave. Curley’s wife gets insulted and calls the men mean names. Curley’s wife finds Lennie in the barn and tries to engage him in conversation. Curley’s wife offers to let Lennie pet her hair. Curley’s wife regrets this decision. She gets her neck broken by Lennie as she struggles to stop her hair from getting messy.
