Interview with John Updike

After watching the interview with John Updike, I come to see that his view’s of Sammy is the same as mine. We both think that Sammy would react like any other teenage boy would if they saw a girl wearing a bikini walk into the supermarket. Updike believes that Sammy quit in protest to the embarrassment of the girls, while they are trying to be themselves. To me being able to stand up for someone else right's to be able to be themselves is a form of heroism. Sure the world will be harder and his parents might found out, but he is still young and well be fine.
