Carl Luce

 Carl Luce Expository Written by Yaleesmar Rivera and Gea Dávila:   Carl Luce is a secondary character in this novel called “The Catcher in the Rye” but he does not have much participation himself. This young man is 19 years old and is in a stage in which he is not an adult but he is not a child either. It is a difficult stage and the little ones will always look for him because they will see more confidence in him since he is almost his age. He always advises Holden and clearly, he shows us the real things in life and seeks to change the idealized view of Holden's youth. His conversations help Holden face his problems even though he doesn't believe them. The images on the blog should capture key moments and show Luce's character and growth. It's fascinating how literature can reflect real-life struggles and growth.

 The Catcher in the Rye  Written by Gea Dávila and Yaleesmar Rivera Carl Luce Hello, Carl Luce is reporting and I'm three years older than Holden. So, I'm 19 years old and I'm a student mentor at Whooton School. I study at Columbia University and am a resident of New York. I prefer Eastern philosophy to Western philosophy.

  Carl Luce     What's happening! It's me again, Carl Luce reporting. According to the boys and Holden I was always good at sex talk. I am very intelligent and sophisticated and I always have to offer my knowledge to Holden. He swears I'm a know-it-all. I can be cynical and world-weary at times when I talk to Holden about adulthood and all that stuff.

  Carl Luce   Hello, I'm a little sad, this is unacceptable, but no way. I already left school and as I told you I am at Columbia University. We are in 1951 and the things I told you happen in New York, the famous city of the Big Apple or the city that never sleeps. Holden sought me out to talk about sexual issues. I see that you don't know that this makes me uncomfortable, I'm just not very detailed when talking about my sex life. Holden even suspects that I'm gay but I'm seeing an older Chinese woman. I was Holden's childhood friend but it's too much. I presented him with the possibility of looking for someone like his father.

 Carl Luce   Hey, just to tell you that I don't have favorite things, likes or preferences I'm more of a sounding board for Holden's thoughts and worries. And what do you like?

Carl Luce I forgot to say to all of you.  I don't say my ambitions or dreams either, but one piece of advice I could give to someone younger than me would be to practice more self-awareness and understanding (empathy).

  Carl Luce    I serve as a source of advice and guidance to Holden Caulfield. I am represented as an intelligent and sophisticated individual and I do not detail my specific advice. One piece of advice I could give to someone younger might be to explore self-awareness and understanding.
