The carousel is located in Central Park in New York City, NY.
Holden's parents' servant in "The Catcher in the Rye" is named Mrs. Morrow. She is the mother of Ernest Morrow, a boy Holden meets on the train.
Holden is not quite sure, but says that it sounded like "Good Luck!" which he (Holden) hopes it wasn't, as he thinks it "sounds terrible, if you think about it".
Holden considered "George something . . . I don't even remember", to be a typical snobby, phony Ivy League jerk. The fact that "George" pointedly horned in on Holden's date did not help Holden's opinion of him either.
In Chapter 9 of J.D. Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye," Holden considers calling Jane Gallagher, Carl Luce, and Sally Hayes. He ultimately decides not to call any of them.
Holden considered "George something . . . I don't even remember", to be a typical snobby, phony Ivy League jerk. The fact that "George" pointedly horned in on Holden's date did not help Holden's opinion of him either.
The opening scene is important because it takes place in a mental hospital and that questions the reader about how Holden got there and the events that leads to that. This book is in "bookend" structure- meaning that it begins and ends in the same place. (i think) The closing scene is significant because the rain represents Holden starting over, or realising the sadness, and anger he kept with him. The carousel represents Holden's acceptance into the adult world.
I think only possible role model for Holden is Mr.Antollini his English teacher he is not afraid to go to his house and to talk with him.
Holden Caulfield, the protagonist of "The Catcher in the Rye," is fearful of the idea of getting old. He is apprehensive about losing his innocence, individuality, and sense of authenticity that comes with adulthood. Holden expresses a desire to preserve the purity and naivety of childhood, as he sees the corruption and phoniness of the adult world.
For several reasons. One of them (and only one) is "herd mentality", such as when Holden is in the nightclub, and everyone is listening to "Ernie" play the piano. When he finishes, the crowd applauds wildly, and Holden observes "all the phonies went mad with joy". He also observes that Ernie bows "like he's this real humble guy or something". He describes the entire nighclub by saying "the place was crawling with phonies".
Stradlater punched Holden because Holden was hitting him as well. kept calling Stradlater a moron even though he warned Holden to stop many times. ( i also think its a pet peeve or something because in the book, it said "All morons hate it when you call them a moron."[ch. 6])
One song that relates to Phoebe in "The Catcher in the Rye" is "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers. The lyrics convey themes of offering support and being there for someone in times of need, which reflects Holden's relationship with Phoebe as he looks to her for comfort and stability. The song emphasizes the importance of connections and leaning on others for strength, mirroring Phoebe's role in Holden's life.
