ENG 132
What’s Wrong With Holden?/Here’s What You Should Do, Holden…
Spring 2019
Your next project will involve gathering, recording, and
analyzing information about The Catcher in the Rye. The goal is to
provide the reader with a better understanding of the novel’s main
character, Holden Caulfield. Think about his behavior in terms of
cause and effect. Your essay should focus either on reasons for his
behavior (What’s Wrong With Holden?), or the results of Holden’s
choices (Here’s What You Should Do, Holden…). If you choose the
latter, include a section that presents advice/guidance (kind of
like Old Spencer). Make sure to use research to support your ideas!
Here are the requirements:
1. 3-4 sources (books, articles, interviews, media, etc.)
2. A 2-page summary of the novel
3. A short essay (2-3 pages) that incorporates the
information you gathered and supports some type of causal argument.
4. An MLA “Works Cited” in the essay (it doesn’t count as a
page).
