Unpopular opinion (maybe?) but Holden Caufield

Why would it be an unpopular opinion?

Probably because most readers found(/still find) Holden annoying.

Annoying and therefore memorable. It would be an unpopular opinion if the question was about likability.

Somewhat true. He could also be lumped in with other annoying teenagers found in literature though, thus diminishing how memorable he is. But I think the best answer would come from the original commenter ha ha

Well, what did they expect from a teenager?On a more serious note,yeah, he can be quite annoying, but he also has some redeemable qualities
