Characteristics of Holden's Voice

Using our great definition of literary voice from yesterday, we took notes on the details that make Holden's voice so Holden. We read chapter 6 looking specifically for details of Holden's voice. On our notes sheet, we collected the words that Holden typically uses and the kinds of sentences he typically uses (structure and specific examples). Get the notes sheet from Heather!

You couldn’t tell the twins apart except for their particular idiosyncrasies. Fred never wore matching socks and Calvin always had a koosh ball that he played with constantly.
