Holden Caulfield considers joining a monastery as a response to his deep sense of alienation and his desire for authenticity in a world he perceives as phony. He is grappling with his feelings of loss and disconnection, particularly after the death of his brother Allie. The idea of a monastery represents a retreat from societal expectations and a search for inner peace and understanding. Ultimately, it reflects his struggle to find meaning and purpose in a chaotic world.
Holden asked Ackley about joining a monastery because he admired the simplicity and solitude of monastic life, which contrasted with the social complexity he experienced in the outside world. He found the idea of withdrawing from society and focusing on personal reflection appealing.
i would guess that he is sick of everybody. he feels like people are phoney. where can he be genuine and real and honest? in a monastery as a priest or monk
Yes
when he was at the sandwich bar, the nuns he saw had inexpensive suitcases. when slagle and holden were roommates, slagle was too embarassed about his inexpensive suitcases and took holden's suitcases instead (saying that they were his)
Holden asks the door man for the key to his parents' apartment, pretending to forget his own. The doorman obliges, thinking Holden is a resident. This allows Holden to sneak into the apartment while his parents are out.

The plural of monastery is monasteries.
A 'monastery' is a house for a community of monks or nuns. As far as I am aware, there is no such word as 'monistary'. I cannot find it in any of my dictionaries. You may be thinking of 'monistic', the adjective derived from the noun 'monism' (the theory that there is only one category of being). Alternatively, you may just have come across a misspelling of the word 'monastery'.
I am a monastery clergy that is tired
The Monastery was created in 1820.
