Discussion/ study questions for John upsides a & p

Sammy considered the bathing suits informal..... out of place in the store, but he like it. From the text, he likely would have considered anything that covered the girls up as formal.

You know, it's one thing to have a girl in a bathing suit down on the beach, where what with the glare nobody can look at each other much anyway, and another thing in the cool of the A & P, under the fluorescent lights, against all those stacked packages, with her feet paddling along naked over our checkerboard green-and-cream rubber-tile floor.
