New Characters!!! Part 2 of OMAM

In this new part of OMAM several new characters were introduced. Some characters are Curly's Wife, Curly, Candy, Slim, and the boss. One character I found particularly interesting is Curly. Curly wants to pick on Lennie all of a sudden when George and Lennie first meet him. It's later revealed by Candy that Curly hates big guys since he's little, and used to fight. Other than Curly's "pleasant behavior" towards Lennie and George, he's married to Curly's Wife and is the son of "the boss". Like "the boss" Curly is not a laboring man, and works by watching over the ranch like his dad. I also noticed in this part of the book how much Curly and his father are alike. They both watch over and own the ranch, they wear the same things ( boots with spurs and no denim like the other workers), and they have kind of the same build up ( short, muscular build). I even hint a similarity in both of their personalities like being suspicious of George and Curly, and being known as a little rough around the edges. Even though these characters are just introduced, there might be more characteristics, similarities, differences, and background there is more to learn about. I would like to know the most how Curly is going to treat Lennie and George on there first day of work. Yet there is more to come!!!!!!!!!
