The short story by John Updike, A&P, takes place in a grocery store in the early 1960s. In this time period American society braced a strong spirit of conformity and tended to follow the ways of those around them. Updike writes using very descriptive words to capture the reader’s attention and help visualize the story as if the reader were in the store.
