Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye‚ Holden Caulfield relates to all people and their experiences.

The seeker is unsatisfied with life and has a desperate wish to feel fulfilled‚ yet this search causes them to overlook the things they already have.

A cheap and simple red hunting hat‚ with no significance to anyone else but him‚ is the symbol for these conflicts. The hat is inseparable from J.D. Salinger’s portrait of Holden for a good reason: it is a symbol
