A & P

. . .
It seems to me that it is safe to assume that Sammy is an anti-hero, because he is ordinary, directionless and perplex person. The girls politely left after a little argument. Lengel was still angry by their rudeness that he started taking his frustration out on Sammy. All Sammy did is tell his boss “I quit”. Unlike the heroes of today like Kurt Warner who won the Super Bowl or Mario Lemeuix who returned to hockey after being out for 3 ½ years. ”(A&P 16) It is a forgone conclusion that Sammy is a hero, but the question was “what type”. “Sammy does not know where he is going when he walked out aimlessly out of the A&P in search of his dream to be with Queenie. Allowing Sammy the opportunity to face his fears and go searching for Queenie. This enables him to walk up to his boss and say, “I quit”. He approached the girls and told them they have to either put clothing on or leave. Lengel saw the girls and became livid, because of there skimpy bathing suits. ” (A&P 13) This distinguishes him from the heroes who gave speeches at Lincoln Memorial, preached in front of millions on a mountaintop, and sign doctrines that free the slaves.
