In Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, is Curley's wife lonely or isolated?please give evidence from sections 2-5.

Reflective of the most lonesome of eras in the history of
the United States, the Great Depression, John Steinbeck's novella, Of Mice and
Men is populated with characters who are misfits of terrible aloneness. 
Certainly, as the only female character in the narrative, Curley's wife is separate, or
isolated, from the other characters.  And, that she, also, is lonely is apparent from
her actions and speech.

declares her "jail bait" and a danger, instructing Lennie to never speak to her or go

because of a woman such as Curley's wife.  The others avoid her because she is the wife
of the boss's son; they can more easily go to "Susy's place" in town where for "Two an'

their jobs. Curley's wife's lack of a name in Steinbeck's work indicates that she is
perceived only as a woman who is a temptress, an Eve of
sorts.

In another ironic twist, Curley's wife has married
Curley because she was lonely in her own small town; however, as the only woman on the
ranch miles from anywhere, she is yet lonely.  Pretending that she is merely tired of
Curley, she tells the men:
