Updike wrote a story called "A+P". In this story there is a very complex character‚ his name is Sammy. This story was written in 1961.

John Updike’s "A & P" and T. Coraghessan Boyle’s "Greasy Lake" have many similarities as well as differences as coming-of-age stories. "A & P" is about a nineteen-year-old boy working at a grocery shop who stands up against the manager trying to defend and impress the girls he is attracted to who are not "decently dressed" (Updike 18). "Greasy Lake" is a story of several nineteen years old youths who play a prank on a bad character and experience what real bad characters can do. Fortunately‚

outcome. John Updike’s “The A&P‚” portrays the freedom of choice. Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” and “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allen Poe provide a lack of choice for their characters. “A Rose For Emily” by William Faulkner takes a different route in which the character transitions between a life without choice and one with the power to take things to the extreme.

In "A&P" Updike describes the store as a
