Explanation:
After a thorough analysis of J.D. Salinger’s novel The Catcher in the Rye”, it can be inferred that Holden Caulfield runs away from Pencey Prep due to a combination of factors that can be classified under four main categories: his disillusionment with the adult world, his feeling of being ostracized from his peers, his sense of inadequacy and cynicism towards the education system, and his insatiable yearning for independence.To understand why Holden feels disillusioned with the adult world, we need to consider his experiences leading up to his departure from Pencey Prep. Holden’s brother Allie died of leukemia, and Holden has never really come to terms with his loss.
