The Catcher in the Rye Response

Holden is really beginning to be depressed. He is drinking alot and is very lonely. He asks different people to go on dates with him. I really dont think he likes the girls besides Jane, he just wants to be with people. Loneliness is the theme of these chapters. Holden even goes to the duck pond in this chapter. He starts thinking of death and what would happen if he dies. This could be warning signs of events to come.
