The Catcher in the Rye Who is the antagonist in The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 12:51 Last updated by Cat on 06 Jul 03:50
I think that Holden is ultimately his own antagonist. His judgmental cynicism usually gets the better of him. Holden's negativity gets in the way of him forming meaningful relationships.
