A Perfect Day for Bananafish

I have to say, I was quite confused with the ending of this story. I was definitely not expecting the young man to shoot himself! However, I didn't end up hating the story, but I can say that I like CITR much better!


One of the characters I compared and sort of "recognized"right away was Muriel who reminded me of Holden. I felt that she was sort of her own person, just like Holden. Muriel also knows what annoys her, which is once again, like Holden. I also felt that Sybil was very much like Holden's little sister, Phoebe. Sybil is smart, and listens to what others say which is very similar to Phoebe!
