About this document
Holden Caulfield: A Hypocritical Prophet by Alexandra Matysová is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Holden often criticizes others for being phony, yet there are instances where he exhibits hypocrisy himself. While he is able to point out flaws in others, he fails to reflect on his own actions and acknowledge his psychological problems. His depressed and cynical view of others is colored by his own mental state. By judging others but not examining his own behavior, Holden demonstrates hypocrisy, though this may be how he copes with his depression and difficulties in life.
