Differing Points of View

When reading a story, we as readers tend to read from a biased view point. We consider the view point of the main character and that characteronly. A lot of times if we are told a story from a different point of view, our entire perception of the story changes. Jane Eyre is one example of this type of story. There have been many different retellings of this story from different view points. Adele: Jane Eyre's Hidden Story, The Story of Adele From Jane Eyre, and Rochester: A Novel Inspired by Jane Eyre  are all examples of this. I think that Catcher in the Rye would also be a great story told from a different point of view. There are so many minor characters in that story that would be great to hear from. Pheobe, his parents, and Stradlator would all make great stories of Holden. I think one interesting view point would be that of the various taxi drivers. Holden finds himself many times in the back seat of a taxi. Every time he seems to be a different person. I think if the various taxi drivers voiced their opinions of Holden, it would make a great book. Overall, both Catcher in the Rye and Jane Eyre have been great stories from Holden and Jane respectively, but may be they would be even better told from a different eye.
