back to all of Phippsburg-Lord, to the entire continent-
till with a shrug he sloughed off its heavy stillness and
looked for a way to climb down to the water. ... [F]inally
he was down on the beach, breathing hard and deep, like
something that was only just coming alive and drinking in

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

O Turner feels stifled in the town but free in the open air of the beach.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gary D. Schmidt's book "Lizzie Bright and The Buckminster Boy" is a story of friendship amidst racism and love between friends who are bounded by their society. The story also deals with the theme of religion and truth and what freedom means for the two friends despite their differing racial backgrounds.

In the given excerpt from the story, Turner is seen escaping to the beach-side to breathe some fresh air. This is literally and metaphorically plausible, for he felt free on the beach, "breathing hard and deep, like something that was only just coming alive and drinking in the liquid air for the first delicious time." He turned his back "to all of Phippsburg-Lord, to the entire continent" suggesting that he felt freer and more at ease at the beach than in the town.

This shows that Turner's internal conflict of feeling stifled in the town but felt free in the open air of the beach resonates with the setting.
