Best Answer

Curley's wife is described as a "tart" or in other words, a slut. She is always checking out other guys, but as you read further in the book, you can see that she is just lonely and wants a little human interaction because Curley isn't very nice to her.

She was given no name by Steinbeck in the book, she's simply referred to a Curley's Wife almost like she is his property.
