Holden Caulfield isn't really an unintelligent character, but really more of a misunderstood character. While he struggles with grades and being transferred from school to school, that doesn't necessarily mean he's stupid, maybe just troubled. If you read the book and understand the way he speaks and thinks, you'll be able to realize that he's really smarter than other characters think he is. His intelligence is concealed and unapparent, and the way he communicates to the reader his thoughts shows that he is. He is a smart and, based on his own narration, complex character.
