Of Mice and Men- Conflict

            There are many conflict in the book Of Mice and men. The one person that causes a lot of the conflicts is Curely. Curely is a small guy, like many small guys, he dislikes big guys. I think he has the courage to stand up to a big guy because he was a boxer. One conflict he created was when he got into a fight with Lennie, Lennie has a mental disability, he isn't very smart. He broke Curely's hand, but luckily Curely promised not to tell anyone.
            If Curely had told the boss, it could have caused Lennie and George to get kicked of the ranch. Lennie is a big man, so he could hurt or kill anybody on the ranch that gets him mad. If he did kill someone, they would lose their job and not get the dream ranch they have always wanted. There are many conflicts between George, Lennie, and Curely. I think that this will cause some problems later in the book.
            The one person I am really skeptical about is Curely's Wife. She is a very flirtatious women that could cause problems with the men on the ranch. She could attract people like Lennie, and since Lennie is big, he could hurt Curely's Wife or offend her very easily. I have read the whole book already and Curely's wife has some huge impacts on what happens in the book. So she is a really big part of this book that should;t be overlooked by anyone.
