Furthermore, it could also indicate Candy’s malefic side if at all he had one. Notice how he is scurrilously talking about Curley’s wife, with the clear intention of discrediting her, and getting George to talk to him. This displays him to be heedful and a social leper amongst the other itinerant workers: “Well, she got the eye”.

There are a variety of adjectives such as “Reassures” and “Safe” which incontrovertibly describe Candy’s thoughts and feelings.
This is shown by him tell about how he has made a song in his head to the noises of the cash register makes. Sammy is ultimately presented as an unnecessary voice for the three girls. Though the reader does not know where they came from or if there is any truth to the way Sammy portrays them, he helps the reader gain a better understanding of the way they act and where they are most likely from.

The author uses the way Sammy looks at and analyzes the girls so thoroughly, to provide him with some sense of a personality.

I like how the author set the scene in the first paragraph but then skipped backward to tell you how he got to where he was, with pig lips sitting in front of him. Some of the things that Edge described made me sick to my stomach when he said, "The pig feet floating in a murky jar by the cash register, their blunt tips bobbing up through a pasty white film (97)." When Edge was describing the pig's lips as he ate them, I could almost taste them in my mouth. John T. Edge did a good job with hooking the reader and making them taste, smell,
Granddaddy finally had to order them out. Bambara exclusively uses indirect characterization to develop the characters Smilin’, Granny, and Granddaddy, in order to convey the theme.

Analytical essay of A&P by John Updike Gail Kelly; C0321148 Eng 160 This short story by John Updike is set in the North of Boston in 1961. During this time in history there were major political concerns as Cold War hysteria plagued most of the United States. The protagonist, Sammy, is a clerk at a grocery store who spends his lazy work days analyzing the patrons.
