A&P

So, I thought this was a really different piece compared to some of the other things we have been reading in class. I thoroughly enjoyed it up until the very end. I felt like the ending was a little misplaced. The whole time he is in the grocercy store, he doesn't seem concerned with his future, then in the ending it's like all of a sudden I-realized-how-much-my-life-is-gonna-suck-from-now-on to conclude it. It just seemed like the whole article was too detailed for such a broad and general "my life is over as I know it" moralized ending. I thought it was extremely detailed and that helped to have a full understanding and knowledge of the setting and to better convey Sammy's thoughts and feelings as he is apparently making drastic life-altering decisions. Also, I don't know if it was done purposely but the typographical errors and weird spacings in some places really detracted from the reading which made it a little difficult to completely follow. However, on the whole, I thought that this was a good, light read and a nice change of pace from reading 18 pages of errors.
