Clara was Lennie's aunt, Stienbeck also used the same name for the whore house that all the guys fromt he ranch go to on a Saturday. We find that out when George confinds in Slim in the bunkhouse.

for question 5 it was lennie that said "i don't like this place." good quiz though

Aletia

Report

On the last question, was it not Lennie that quote was from, about not liking that place? I distinctly remember using that when writing about Lennie

Rebecca

Report

On question one, isn't the death of the dog just predicting the death of Lennie? Not that George realised that he must kill him? Because that would mean that Candy would have killed the dog, rather than Carlson, because the dog was Candy's responsibility? Probably just me being picky.  :P

Yeah it is lennie when Curley enters the room and asks to speak to lennie when george tells him not to reply 'Let the big guy talk for himself'.

Overall nice quiz, however make questions more specific and clarity is key.
