Curley is portrayed in the novel as a pessimistic character through his violent actions. Especially the fight he has with the most innocent character of them all Lennie. Steinbeck uses Curley as a target to George when he fights with Lennie. Although Curley is marred to his wife it is evident that she doesn't have a name showing how Steinbeck uses her name as a type of possession to Curley. Curley initially has no power in the novel at all as his so called characteristics are outdone once slim is introduced to the novel showing how Steinbeck uses slim to foreshadow what Curley is really meant to be like.
Curley is extremely arrogant especially the way he is introduced in the novel. the character himself bosses son is evil which shows how curley is presented badly in the novel.

How is Curley's Wife presented and developed in Of Mice and Men?
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 :)
