The character Holden Caulfield is a pretty depressing character, and the setting reflects it perfectly. They are near Christmas Day making, it cold, harsh, what makes it more bleak, is the fact that all the snow on the ground appears to be melting. Holden is currently in New York City which is known for being a crowded place, but it feels as if it were empty,and lonely. Which is exactly how Holden feels. This helps add to Holden's character, almost making him blend into the setting, as if it were part of him. The right setting can change the perspective of your reader towards your main character
