Duddy's obsession with land lies within his grandfather, Simcha. When Duddy was small,

he spoke those unforgettable words to him, "A man without land is nobody."

When it seemed as if nobody cared or respected him, Simcha did. Duddy did not receive

the same kind of love from his father or uncle as Lennie did. When Duddy comes back

from work at, he asks, "Why [Max] didn't answer any of [his] letters?" He replies he

"But Duddy remembered that when Lennie had worked as a camp counsellor one summer

his father had written every week. He had driven out to visit him twice."(pp. 104 & 105)

Duddy did not have the same kind of affection and devotion Lennie and Max shared. The

same situation came from his uncle, Benjy. At first sight, Benjy described him as having

respect towards Duddy in Simcha's eyes but in this twisted world, respect from the

overall public. Duddy knows of Simcha disapproves of his actions but at the end, he does

beginning a life with no morals and corrupt "friends." He does not think twice to people
