Analysis of Setting ~ Anton

This book took place in the 1950's . We don't know where the story initially took place, however it eventually takes place in New York where Holden interacts socially with many people. According to our book, social-economic was doing very well for bars,hotels and for prostitutes in the 1950's. Many people would be attending the bars late at night and would not stop after one single drink. Hotels were also popular because people would rent a room for the night for any kind of company that they were expecting. According to American history, this was the time after the second world war. Meaning men from the world who haven't seen woman for years in the battlefield would likely come back and be eager to find love. However, other men would just like to celebrate in bars and relax for their accomplishments and to talk about it among friends.
