Chapter 18-19- Holden describes the Wicker Bar as sophisticated but he is critical of the people who patronize it. Discuss why you think Holden chose the Wicker Bar as a place to meet Luce.

I think Holden chose the Wicker Bar as a place to meet Luce because Luce was a few years older then Holden and Holden must have wanted to impress Luce. Luce was a smart person and since the Wicker Bar was a sophisticated place he wanted Luce to meet him there so he wouldn't seem like he was still a young boy. Holden really doesn't even like the Wicker Bar because of all the grown people but because of Luce he decided to go there.
