In 'The Catcher in the Rye', Holden Caulfield constantly complains about the 'phoniness' of the adult world, yet he himself is not entirely truthful and often acts in ways that are not so different from what he criticizes. This is ironic as he is part of the world he despises while trying to separate himself from it.

Take 'Macbeth' for example. Macbeth believes that the prophecies he receives will bring him power and glory. However, the prophecies end up leading him to his downfall. He kills the king believing it will secure his position, but instead, it sets off a chain of events that destroys him. The irony is that what he thought would be his rise was actually his ruin.
