week 4 question1

In my opinion "The Swimmer", does not make statements about upperclass life too much. I beleive that it is referencing more to how people in a different social network helps one another. It seems that he has lost his memory or is in denial about what has happened in his life, and he doesnt want to admit that he is alone. Most of who he thought were his friends either dont want him around or give him the cold shoulder. He made certain choices in his life, and he knew that they would offend his ring of friends. Ultimately if you have a problem with one person in your network you have a problem with alll of them.
