spending a day together in the park, Studs has the thought that the “wind was like the hand of a pretty girl”, which is an odd thought for someone “like Studs Lonigan to have” (112). Unfortunately, Studs sees this artistic thought as conflicting with how he is supposed to be, and this makes him embarrassed in front of Lucy.
