Catcher and the Rye Part II

The second part of the Catcher and the Rye can be summarized easily...Holden is CRAZY. At the beginning of the book, the reader gets a glimpse of how stupid Holden is, but the second part really brings out his craziness. A classical example of this craziness is his date with Sally Hayes. It mostly occurs because he's bored.  During the date, he tells her he loves her and then starts talking about getting married and moving to the west?!?! When Sally rejects his proposal, he calls her a "pain in the ass" and exits the restaurant calling himself a madman. He then starts walking around the city and calls Carl Luce up. On a side note, I find it interesting and queer that Holden out of the blue thinks of random people to have a date with or talk with. The peculiar thing is that it always come down to calling Jane Gallagher...and Holden never actually talks to her. Anyway, Holden then gets drunk, just because he feels like it when he cannot legally drink. He then starts talking about more random things and tries to ask the singer out. Finally, he exits the bar and goes starts walking. The next part that I thought was very weird is that he starts to walk to the park just because he wants to see how the ducks are doing. This raises the question, what's Holden's obsession with ducks?Holden really needs to get his priorities in order.  I end this entry with a simple equation: HOLDEN=CRAZY/INSANE.
