A&P by John Updike

I had mixed feelings about this story,  I felt like the story was a little sexist, and rude towards women. The author seemed very critical of the women an their actions. The sentences where descriptive, and long, and in my opinion was a little to long. I liked the comparison between the "wealthy family", the fish, the glass bowl, the outfits and his family with the beer and lemonade.  A sentence that really stuck out to me was, " I look around for my girls, but they're gone, of course." I like this line because he quit his job, and he kind of knew the girls wouldn't be there but he did it because he believes in what he believes in even if he didn't get laid.
