Clyde is now settled at the fancy hotel. He goes with the guys for a night of drinking that ends up at a brothel. His religious background wars with his sensuality; not a clear victory for either. He spends more money on himself, feels a desire for freedom from his parents in many ways--mentally, spiritually, physically--but can't quite sever the ties.
He sees his mother in a poor section of town inquiring about a room. His mother asks him to help her raise $100.00. Some mystery here--I think it has to do with his sister Esta who fled the household and who is probably now back, pregnant?, disgraced.
Excellent book
