The Art of Fielding Chapter 53 Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • No one can find Henry.
  • When Schwartz looks for him at the bar, he finds Adam Starblind there hitting on Henry's sister, so Schwartz hits on Adam—and by "hit on" in this instance, we mean he literally punches him.
  • Schwartz drags Sophie from the bar, and his phone rings.
  • It's Pella, so Schwartz yells at her for not babysitting Sophie like she was supposed to.
  • He takes the drunk sister to Owen's room and puts her in Henry's empty bed.
  • Not wanting to go home to Pella, Schwartz falls asleep on the carpet.
