Holden is the second of four children of a well-off corporate lawyer and a society woman mother. His older brother D.B. is a writer, who has recently moved to Hollywood to write for films (to Holden's disgust, as Holden hates the movies). His brotehr Allie, two years younger, died of leukemia several years before the book opens - Holden was very close to him. His youngest sister, Phoebe is six years younger than Holden, and they adore each other.
