The last character John Steinbeck has developed, Curley's wife, shows loneliness for three reasons. For one, she states, "I get lonely. You can talk to people, but I can't talk to nobody but Curley" on page 87, which shows that she has loneliness because she doesn't have anyone to talk to but Curley. Specifically, people won't talk to her because they know that Curley will get jealous and want to start a fight. In another reason, she says, "I'm looking for Curley" on page 31, which shows that she, made up an excuse to talk to somebody.

William Faulkner would have named As I Lay Dying, As I Die Sitting on my Butt Doing Absolutely Nothing at All.

When I read “Clever Manka” it left me with a sense of will to fight for what you wish for. I say this because when her husband told her to pick any one thing in the house to take with her.
