In John Steinbeck's 'Of Mice And Men,' the exact number of records isn't revealed. The reader is led to understand why this act of vandalism was so cruel. Curley's wife is alone and bored on the ranch, and the act of breaking her record collection, which she used as escapism, is brutal. At this point, she doesn't even like Curley.

∙ 13y agoIn an interview the author John Steinbeck claimed that the character 'Curley's wife' was created after a similar incident with one of his neighbours. (She didn't die or live in a ranch but she was similar in the way that she flirted with everyone and one day got a man to go round to her house and she let him stroke her hair and sleep with him and she reported him as a rapist even though he did nothing wrong!) So yes many of the characters are from people that he knew in his past.
The flirt lady whom was Johns neighbour was called Catherine Hutch. This is what Curley's wife's name would have been if he had given her a name.

In the Riverside Dance Palace, she also met Curley, so she married him when she never received that letter.
Curley's wife mentions in Of Mice and Men that she has a few old records she used to listen to. However, the specific contents of her record collection are not detailed in the book.
