Catcher In The Rye Chapter 16

Summary: He goes for a walk to think about the nuns and how unselfish they are. While he is walking he thinks about Phoebe and how much he wants to talk to her. He remembers that there is a record he wants to buy for her. So he goes to a store and buys it for her. He remembers that she likes to go roller skating at the park so he goes there to look for her, but he doesn't see her and asks a girls if she has seen her. She says that she might be a museum because it is Saturday. Holden starts to go but remembers that if is Sunday and that she wouldn't be there. He has time to kill so he goes anyway. While he is walking there he thinks about the exhibits. When he finally gets there he gets very depressed for no reason and doesn't want to go in.

Response: It is good that he wants to see his sister. I think that she could get him out of his depression and get him feeling better. It isn't good that he can go from feeling better to feeling terrible so quickly. One minute he was fine and wanted to go to the museum and the next he said you couldn't pay him to go. Hopefully the date makes him feel better again.
