“I never get to talk to nobody. I get awful lonely” (86) in the book, Curley’s wife loneliness is mistaken for something else. Something in the areas of lust. Curley’s wife is not the only character to be
For instance as is commonly said in the story "farmers are most likely the most lonely people" that is the thing that keeps them nearer to each other. They get to know each other
The main gist of the book ‘‘Because of Winn Dixie’’ is that India Opal Buloni(Opal) has recently moved to Florida and is having trouble making friends, but that all changes when she finds Winn Dixie. It all starts out when Opal goes to the grocery store ‘Winn Dixie market’ and she hears people yelling and shouting about, “Someone get that dog out of my store, or I’m going to call the pound!” , so of course Opal is not the type to let that happen, so she says, “Wait, don’t call the pound, thats my dog,”. So she takes the dog home with her and begs her father(also known as the preacher of the local church), and tries to convince him to let her keep the dog, and brings up how he is always saying to try an help the less fortunate, and eventually
Friendships cannot be simply described or withhold a specific definition.

Majnoun, the black poodle does not care too much about creating friendships with other dogs but more with his masters. Majnoun feels closer and relates better to humans then the other dogs in the pack.
In conclusion the loneliest character in the book was Curley's wife for what she has done in the past and because Curley has her isolated from everyone. Throughout the story she is never really talked about because Curley doesn't bring her up a lot so when she comes in the barn with Lennie it was here first time in a while talking to another guy other than Curley and that shows her isolation.
The book that I chose to read for the first quarter is called “The Princess of Iowa”. This book was written by M. Molly Backes. I was really excited to read this book because it mentioned Iowa on the front cover. This book is about a teenage girl named Paige who is from Iowa. She is very popular and her life seems to be perfect.
Therefore for she was extremely lonely and isolated. For instance, Curley’s wife says ‘ You can talk to people, but I can’t talk to nobody but Curley. Else he gets mad. How’d you like not to talk to anybody?’(87).

Do you have an adult in your life that is like a friend? For Jem and Scout in the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, that person is a neighbor named Miss Maudie. Miss Maudie is a character that makes the book a whole lot more meaningful to the reader. She helps Scout through some hard times and somehow manages to get through the hard times in her own life. Miss Maudie is one of my favorite characters and adds a lot to the novel.

One’s self has experienced loneliness from choice or forced into isolation. The novel ¨Of Mice and Men¨ written by John Steinbeck, took place during the Great Depression, near Soledad, California. The protagonist, George and the antagonist, Lennie are mid aged, white men who are working on a ranch with other mid aged, white men. Along with ones who aren’t as focused at the time, such as Crooks, the negro or black, Curley’s wife, the woman and, Candy, the old and weak man were treated differently from all the white, strong males in the novel due to the setting the novel.
