The Catcher in the Rye
What is your overall opinion of the fight between Holden and Sradlater?
Chapters 5 and 6
Chapters 5 and 6
Holden was being impetuous and immature; Stradlater tried to diffuse the situation and end it before it really began. I see the fight as a case of hormonal immaturity...... with a bit of crazy thrown in.
