The Catcher in the Rye Why can Holden only think of Ali as a person who he likes? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 10:23 Last updated by anonymous on 05 Sep 23:31
Because his brother is dead and he wants to remember the good things about his brother. He also talks to Allie alot when he's in stressful situations. He and his brother were very close and even in death Allie is influencing him.
