I never heard anyone comparing Holden and Henderson before.
Personally, I could never bear to say that these characters are
similar because I love Holden so much, and Henderson was so incredibly
annoying. Maybe I feel this way because Holden's actions and beliefs,
etc... were normal because of his age, but for Henderson they were
very innapropriate. It is strange that for some reason I could not
stand Henderson. I hated everything about him. To each his own I
suppose.
