Holden Caulfield, the protagonist of J.D. Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye," offers two key answers regarding his views on adulthood and innocence. First, he expresses a deep disdain for the "phoniness" of adult society, which he believes corrupts genuine human connections. Second, he yearns to protect the innocence of children, symbolized by his fantasy of being the "catcher in the rye," where he imagines saving kids from falling into the complexities and harsh realities of adulthood.
