Blog Entry #5 If you could change the ending in Of Mice and Men how would you change it?

 I would have changed Lennie's death, and Lennie "accidentally" killing Curley's wife. When Curley's wife went to talk to Lennie, she should not have let Lennie touch her hair, surely because she saw the dead puppy that Lennie was petting and already knew how it died.  She knew how strong Lennie was, for when she wandered the ranch to find someone to talk to, she saw Lennie singlehandedly carry bags that no ordinary man could carry alone. She somehow even knew how Curley's hand "got caught in a machine". So when Curley's wife went to see Lennie, she whould have kept a certain distance away from Lennie. If she kept her distance, she wouldn't have died. If she didn't die then Lennie could have avoided trouble.
