MY PERCEPTIONS OF A&P FROM JOHN UPDIKE

After watching the video clip featuring John Updike in class. I noticed alot of things that i imagined A&P to be where very different then John Updike imagined it. He was saying in the interview that Sammy was poor and Queenie was rich, but when i read the story i thought that they both were middle class because the story doesnt describe Queenie or the other girls as rich. When Updike read the story in the interview you could tell it was very short and quick but in the story there was so much more detail and description on how things went and how things were said.
