Blog #2 chapters 15-16 Catcher in the Rye

One moment from chapter 16 where there is a powerful and meaningful vignette present is during chapter 16 when Holden is describing the museum and parts of it that he really enjoys and likes. Holden shows a lot of imagery and really good descriptive words in this scene to really get his point across about the feelings he has about the museum. An example of this is, "It always smelled like it was raining outside, even if it wasn't, and you were in the only nice, dry, cozy place in the world. I loved that damn museum." (Salinger 120) This shows Holden's deep, appreciative feeling toward the museum and how he really enjoys it by describing what he really likes about the museum.
