Holden's cap

And here is the next challenge for you!
What do you know about Holden's red hunting cap? Where has he got it? How does he like wearing it? What does he try to express by wearing it that way, in your opinion?

Who is SHE?

She put her hands around my neck and all. She is very affectionate.
I mean she is quite affectionate for a child. I sort of gave her a kiss ...
She was glad as hell to see me.

Can you guess who is "she" in this short excerpt from the novel. What else is typical of her character. What present has Holden bought for her? And how does she show she would do anything for Holden?


You can have a look at the film clip about Holden, played by the late River Phonix.
