Summary "Antennae" by Hulbert Footner is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book introduces two main characters, Wilfred Pell and Joe Kaplan, who navigate their tumultuous coming-of-age experiences in the contrasting environments of New York City. As the story unfolds, it explores themes of identity, societal expectations, and the stark realities of youth. The opening portion of the novel sets the stage with a detailed account of Wilfred's furtive nighttime escapades as he grapples with the pressures of adolescence. He is marked by a sense of isolation and self-doubt as he ventures into the city, observing various facets of life and encountering others who embody different paths and choices. Meanwhile, Joe Kaplan, depicted in the subsequent sections, is characterized as street-smart and resourceful, showcasing a contrasting perspective shaped by his hard upbringing. The interplay of their journeys establishes a rich tapestry of youthful ambition and the quest for belonging in the urban landscape, inviting readers to reflect on the complexities of growing up in a world rife with challenges and opportunities.
