the fact that curleys wife was physically close to the puppies when she died also metaphorically implied she was mentally of personaly close to a dog

Ahh hate to disagree but you're both severely wrong about the metaphors, his use of light and dark are the most obvious use and they occur althroughout the book, “Both men glanced up, for the rectangle of sunshine in the doorway was cut off. A girl was standing there looking in.” - Curleys wife.

similie-the rabbits sat as quietly as little grey sculptured stones (chapter 1, page 19.)





metaphor- our teacher said they're weren't many because Steinbecks style of writing was very simple and he uses adjectives instead of similies and metaphors.
