Penn Station

Penn Station was one of the favorite places I visited, mainly because it was indoors. I liked it in doors because it was a break from the horrible rain and wind that was above us. But for Holden it wasn't much of a treat, it was more of a shelter. Throughout the book Holden doesn't have a home that he lives in. He goes and stays at several places, one of those places is Penn Station. Both times when Holden is at Penn Station it was dark and he was tired. Holden narrates this when inside, "Everybody was in the sack. I was quite lucky when i got to the station, because i only had to wait about ten minutes for a train."(53). This marks the first time when he goes into Manhattan. When I was there I felt a sense of confusion and that I was lost. Which is what I think Holden felt in the whole book.
