What can you infer about Max from the following quote? “There’s a place I go inside my head sometimes. It’s cool and dim in there and you float like a cloud-no, you are a cloud, the kind you see in the sky on a windy day, the way they keep changing shape except you can’t really see it changing? It just sort of happens, and suddenly you realize the cloud that looks like a big hand with fat fingers now looks like a catcher’s mitt, or a big soft tv set" (Philbrick).
