Chapter 4 notes

Prediction

I think George will not come back from the city one day when he goes just like Crooks said.  I think that the author is trying to foreshadow that George will leave Lennie one day when he goes to the city.  One day, George will get really upset with Lennie, might take his money and leave.  He was saying that Lennie had about $100 saved up and might take all the money from their bank and leave.  That is what any guy might do to live his own life like what Crooks said.  It is much easier to live alone and he himself said that to Lennie in the beginning of the story.


Questions
1)  Why does Crooks tell Lennie that George might not come back and complains about his life when he knows that Lennie wont even understand him?
2)  Why does Candy start talking back to Curley's wife?  She is lonely and trapped in a house all day and wants to communicate with other people.   why does Crooks tell Lennie that George might not come back and complains about his life when he knows that Lennie wont even understand him?
3)  Why did Candy tell Crooks about the house that they were going to set up?  George told them not to tell anyone and Candy is sensible.  
4)  Is it better to live alone as an African American and live in a place by yourself, living peacefully and in an organized environment or live in the bunkhouse full of guys which is probably dirty?  Crooks that a nice place to himself, a nice place to eat, sleep, pass the time.  He had books and was clean, and did not have to have to worry about all the drama of the guys. 
5)  Why did both Crooks and Curley's wife say that getting a house and living there will never happen and that many guys have dreams like that and it wont happen?  Is the author trying to foreshadow that George, Lennie, and Candy will not get a house and will leave just like all the other men?
