A & P - John Updike :: essays research papers

A & amp P takes place in a community inland that is sandy, just near the coast. It starts aside in the supermarket in which three girls in dishwashing suits walk in. One of these girls catches the mettle of Sammy, which is working at the supermarket, Queenie. The one that caught my eye first was the one in the plaid green two-piece. She was a podgy kid, with a good tan and a sweet broad soft-looking place with those two crescents of white just under it, where the sun never seems to hit, at the top of the backs of her legs. Sammy sees these girls and wants to be like them, free in a sense. As time goes on the girls finally get what they wanted and decided to check-out. They give there way to Sammys register where there comes Sammys manager, Lengel, to recoil to the girls about their dress attire.     Sammys feelings for Queenie changes when he hears her voice. Her voice is commonplace and he has make this romantic image of her in his mind. Hearing her voi ce and realizing she is a normal person, (that happens to be wealthy) slightly changes his feelings for her. It brings him back to reality a little. Her voice cloth body of startled me, the way voices do when you see the people first, coming out so flat and dumb yet kind of tony, too, the way it ticked everywhere "pick up" and "snacks." All of a sudden I slid salutary down her voice into her living room. Sammy feels as if he has no pass to get noticed by her unless he does something out of the ordinary. So later on she is done arguing with Lengel, Sammy decides to stand up for her and quit his job in hopes that she will notice him.The girls, and whod blame them, are in a rushing to get out, so I say "I quit" to Lengel immediate enough for them to hear, hoping theyll stop and watch me, their unsuspected hero. They keep right on going, into the electric eye the door flies open and they flicker crossways the lot to their car, Queenie and Plaid and Big Ta ll Goony-Goony (not that as raw material she was so bad), leaving me with Lengel and a kink in his eyebrow.As this is fortuity Sammy starts to see the stupidity of what he just did, but still discontinue since he already stated it he might as rise up do it.
