AQA English Literature Of Mice and Men and An Inspector Calls exam predictions

I didn't see the exam paper, I just saw a discussion. I presume it was section B because it asked about Curley's Wife's death in the barn

Did you do the exam in 2015? If you did, what did you write about her death as I feel that was quite a hard extract?

Damn it, I did the same thing! I just thought it was death in general xD

I didn't. However, i analysed it, hope it helps

juxtaposition of impurity vs innocence when he describes Curley’s wife laying dead.
As she lies in the hay she is "pretty and simple... sweet and young". Perhaps when she is no longer in the hands of men, we see a deeper side to her character; the real person with dreams, ambitions and disappointments that are hidden beneath the layers of make-up.

Living as the only women in a male society has caused her to behave "mean" acting like a "tart" and death is the only thing that frees her.

Steinbeck uses irony by making Curley's wife seem more alive when she is dead.

Thank you, these are really good interpretations!
