"I don't even like old cars. I mean they don't even interest me. I'd rather have a goddam horse. A horse is at least human, for God's sake." - Holden Caulfield

After Phoebe spills that Holden is in a mental hospital, Jane is out of her mind with worry and fear. Will she ever tell the love of her life that he means more than just a friend to her? Future AU/Post canon AU (whatever you wanna call it), Jane x Holden one-shot.

The Melancholy of Holden Caulfield is a realistic extension of the novel, The Catcher in the Rye. It follows the life of Holden, exploring how Holden's view of the 'adult world' have developed after the events in the novel. I originally wrote this for school in year 11. My teacher loved it, so I hope you enjoy it too. I have published this story on Wattpad too, by the way. w

If Holden wants to make a new beginning, he must first confront his feelings of the past. Catcher in The Rye One Shot (pastiche)

What did Holden do after he got the boot from Pencey Prep? This short story explains what Holden did with his life, 10 years after the main story. I wrote this for a writing assignment in my English class in high school, I was an angsty 16 year old at the time of writing this so it was pretty easy for me to get into the character of Holden.

I apologize profusely. I wrote this 4 years ago and posted it on ao3. I figured deserved to have it as well. Basically, Holden has a time, and everything makes him depressed. Including jerking off.

Have you ever wondered what Ernie is really like? Is he truly a phony, or is it all a show he puts on to be successful? I wrote this for my English class this year. The assignment was to write a scene in another character's perspective, and I thought maybe Ernie would be interesting- we only really hear Holden's judgement the entire scene.

An old high school assignment, fresh from the archives. I was told to write what the main character, Holden Caufield, ended up doing in the years that followed the story. This is what I came up with.

Holden's back.

What happened after the book's main story and Holden new adventure. One-shot. I love this book, I wanted read more but there is no more so I wrote something on my own. The rate is T because the story is pretty much like the book so be strong. English no first language, and it's also my first story so...Don't like? Don't hate. Be happy.

One-Shot. After Holden is committed to the institution and writes his first story, the doctors there decide that for therapy he should write more stories about his life.

Jane and Stradlater go out on a date.

We all know Holden Caulfield's story and how he met the young hooker, Sunny. But did anyone ever wonder how Sunny entered her current line of business? Or how she met Maurice? This is her story. Sunny POV. Rated T to be safe.

Actual quotes by holden, just made into a poem

FOREWORD: In my junior year, the Advanced Lit-Comp Class was assigned to write a short "chapter" to The Catcher in the Rye in order to see if we really understood the complexity of the protagonist. Due to the graphic nature of this novel, I sincerely apologize for the excessive profanity and obscenities.

Holden is married and is a father to a little girl. They visit New York to see Phoebe and Holden remembers the events that took place 20 years ago. I apologize in advance if I was unable to justice to Holden's character.

Holden's Journal: journal entries, random thoughts, correspondence, book reviews and other stuff. More journal entries ready to go. Waiting for some reviews before posting.

Yet another list of ways to annoy characters that I wrote last year. This time, we're torturing Holden Caulfield!
