Answer:
[S]ince my photograph was as widely distributed as my publisher could make it, I would find it impossible to move about without being recognized.
Explanation:
John Steinbeck's "Travels with Charley" is a travelogue written about the road trip that the author took in 1960 with his poodle Charley. The travel diaries would narrate the author's trips around the United States, a country he's been writing most of his stories about.
The statement that shows a problem is <em>"[S]ince my photograph was as widely distributed as my publisher could make it, I would find it impossible to move about without being recognized."</em> This was because, despite his desire to openly and freely travel the country and see its sights, he can't do that as his photographs had been circulated as much as possible by his publisher. This means that being a famous writer, people are familiar with who he is, and that poses a problem for him to travel freely.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
