Sorry...In retrospect, I guess the only part of "Run to the Hills" that really applies to this book is the refrain, "Run to the hills, run for your lives." I forgot that the rest of the song is about European explorers coming to Central American and killing the native people. I only suggestted it because I love that song...Bad choice on my part.

It still works, though. I think it would go pretty well with Lenny running after he kills Curley's wife.
I'll think it over.

You know what would be the absolute most awesome song for Curley? "Malignant Narcisism," by Rush. Yeah, it's an instrumental, but the title is the best description of Curley that I can think of. He loves himself, and he's really mean about it.
