adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. Hello. My name is 'Catcher in the Rye'. You might remember me from 9th-grade English-class. Anyway, I'm still here and I'm still a part of the Western Canon. Sure, almost nobody over the age of 18 reads me anymore. But, you can't fault a guy for briefly replacing sex and binge-drinking in the minds of our nation's teenagers. I just wish that those kids would write better book reports about me.(Oh, and that whole "identifying-with-Holden-Caulfield-to-such-a-degree-that-I-turn-Emo-and-grow-asymmetrical-bangs-and-start-obsessing-about-teenage-angst-and-how-my-parents-just-don't-get-me" thing....sorry about that.) (  )6   lanewilkinson | Dec 4, 2009 |  I should have trust my first instinct and put it away after the first few pages. I didn't and it never got any better. (  ) slarsoncollins | Dec 3, 2009 | I, unlike many people, did not read this book in high school. Nor was I able to understand the brilliance of it until I finished it. The whole time I was reading, I was thinking that it was garbage and I didn't understand the hype of a novel with a plot that seems to be going nowhere and an annoying protagonist. But when I finished, I understood what the big deal was and I am now able to say that J.D. Salinger has a genius original YA novel. smp0526 | Dec 1, 2009 | What more needs to be said? (  ) ggoes | Nov 27, 2009 | One of the few books that I have read repeatedly and loved with each reading. What is interesting is how my view of Holden Caulfield has changed through the different eras of my life. As a teenager I identified with Holden, as a young adult I questioned the reality of his perception and, as I approach middle age, I pity him. Thank you Salinger for writing such an enigmatic character and then leaving it up to us to puzzle him out. ( ) Soultalk | Nov 27, 2009 |  sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

| Descrição do livro |
|
"If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. In the first place, that stuff bores me, and in the second place, my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything pretty personal about them."
His constant wry observations about what he encounters, from teachers to phonies (the two of course are not mutually exclusive) capture the essence of the eternal teenage experience of alienation.
