An Idiosyncrasy Derived from Holden’s Depression
Throughout the novel The Catcher in the Rye, by J. ... His tendency to have a desire for calling acquaintances is created from his lonely state of depression he’s in. His loneliness creates an idiosyncrasy that makes him always consider calling people. Within the novel he reflects on calling people ranging from Jane, his child hood friend who he played checkers with, to Sally Hayes, a girl that goes on a date with Holden to the movies. This idiosyncrasy Holden has appears within the novel many times, created from his lonely state.
The cause of Holden’s idiosyncrasy of wanting to always call someone is caused by a lonely depression he has. This depression appears evident throughout the novel. The first part of the novel where the reader truly sees Holden’s depression is when he arrives in a hotel after he leaves Pencey.
