How does the characterization of Hollister conribute to the development of the theme?
Being accustomed to comfort and luxury, he feels anxious in the harsh conditions outdoors.
Being accustomed to a more pleasant climate, he is discouraged by the cold and the precipitation he encounters.
Being accustomed to the crowds and noise of the city, he has a new appreciation for the quiet wilderness.
Being accustomed to urban conveniences, he is unprepared for the rough outdoors.
