Conflict Blog


          The conflict that I want to look closer to is the relationship between Lennie and Curley. Curley already hates Lennie because of his size and his intelligence. The reason Lennie doesn't like Curley is because the way he treats people and because he is mean. There is a lot of tension between them two and it can get Lennie in trouble. All of the pressure is on Lennie because if he were to do something to Curley he can get fired. Another way Lennie can get in trouble is because Curley would want to get revenge on him because of the fight when he broke his hand. Curley does need to look out too because people underestimate him and think he is a weak link. The thing is Lennie can seriously hurt someone and you shouldn't mess around with him.

          The second conflict is between George and Curley. They end up having beef between each other and not like each other. They never agree on anything and Curley just wants Lennie and George to leave. Curley feels like he might lose his power over the other people and they'll like George and Lennie more. The main reason George doesn't like Curley is because he hates Lennie and is always talking bad about him. They both really need to cool it because the more beef they have the more tension the Bunkhouse will have. All of the pressure is on George of course because if he does something wrong he'll risk getting fired but, if Curley does something nothing would happen because his dad is the Boss.

          The last conflict is about George feels guilt on not helping Lennie and always telling him what to do. He is starting to regret yelling at Lennie when it is unnecessary. George just feels like he needs t yell at him so Lennie will never do it again. Another reason he feels guilt is because he made Lennie hurt Curley when he really didn't want to and he feels like it's his fault when it isn't. He is just doing it out of love because he doesn't want anything bad to happen to Lennie. George feels like he is his responsibility because Lennie doesn't have anyone else to help him out in life. I don't think George should feel guilt he is doing it just to keep Lennie safe.
