I have literally just finished my coursework on how Steinbeck presents and develops Curley's wife.
I started off on how she has no name and how her name makes her possession of her husband- Curley, i also said about how she wears red- which is a sexual colour back in the old days ;) and still is now in a way.
In the next paragraph i mentioned how shes the only girl on the ranch and is lonely with Curley and does not want to be with him so she flirts with the other ranch workers to get the attention she thrives.
In the third i mentioned about her dream she once could have had as a Hollywood movie star and said about Lennie and George not being the only ones with a dream and explained she blames her mother for not giving her the letter that they may have sent ALTHOUGH her mum says she didn't receive one, which makes us think whether she actually didn't and just thinks her mum has ruined it for her and now is stuck with Curley.
And in the last one i said how Lennie is meant to stay away from her and loves stirring things up as she knows he isn't the brightest tool in the box and how she dies :)
lennie , george , candy , slim , curley , curleys wife , crooks , and more
eventually lennie, and georgre and lennie's dream
In "Of Mice and Men," Curley's wife is described as a young, attractive woman with full, rouged lips and wide-spaced eyes. She wears a lot of makeup and has a flirtatious manner.
Curley's wife gave Slim "the eye" in the novel "Of Mice and Men." This gesture implies flirtation or seduction, suggesting that Curley's wife may have been seeking attention or validation from Slim.
After accidentally killing Curley's wife in "Of Mice and Men," Lennie flees to a nearby hiding spot in the brush by the Salinas River where George had instructed him to go if he ever got into trouble.
"looloo" "jailbait" "tart" suggests that she is a tramp
Curley's wife claims that the men won't bother them in the barn because they are all out playing horse shoes.
Curley's wife, in Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men," had the potential to be a successful actress or entertainer. However, societal norms, her lack of support, and her loneliness confined her to a life of discontent as the lonely wife of a ranch worker.
Salinas. :)

The author of this put no allegory into this tale, so she symbolizes a dumb woman who married a retard, it is so she relates to retards like you.
