Curleys Wife in John Steinbecks novel Of Mice and Men is an example of how the readers perception of a character can change without the character actually changing We first hear about Curleys Wife when Candy describes her to George Candy uses expressions such as she got the eye and goes on to describe her as looking at other men before eventually calling her a tart Through Candys words we develop an initial perception of Curleys Wife as flirtatious and even promiscuous This perception is furthe
