adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. This was the first book that allowed me to realize you didn't have to be a goody two-shoes in life, and it was okay to be a cynical little malcontent and enjoy the company of yourself, even if no one else liked you. After laughing to tears over passages, I felt I had found a friend, and was sad to let Holden go. If nothing else, this book helped me discover the power of literature to be interior companionship, and for that I'm grateful to Salinger. I'll never forget that feeling of introspection Catcher in the Rye induced; it was like sharing a dirty little secret with someone that you masturbated as a young boy, and finding out that others did it too. (  )1   sross008 | Nov 1, 2009 |  This is my all-time favorite book. I could read it a thousand times and never get tired of it. J.D. Salinger is a great author. ( )1 Anagarika | Oct 30, 2009 | Hmm....I'm just happy I finished this book. haha. I've always wanted to. I a more for romance novels, but I do have to say that this book had me intrigued. It is a very clever story. I could NOT stomach the profanity, but besides that, it was PRETTY epic. :) Bree_Jay | Oct 30, 2009 | I remember reading this during high school and it by far was the worst book I have ever read. I doubt I have ever hated a character more than Holden Caulfield. His constant whining and compulsive lying only made me wish that he would have a successful attempt at suicide. (  ) Retrobovine | Oct 29, 2009 | Holden Caulfield, collete student, has little tolerance for anything pretensious, including the scramble for social status, drops out and leaves college on blind journey to anywhere searching his dreams and fantasies for meaning, understanding, and simple honest relational experience, finds none of this, suffers breakdown, ends up back home, finds that happiness can't be found by seeking for it, that it's inherently prior and must be chosen.

Amazon.com (ISBN 0316769487, Mass Market Paperback)Since his debut in 1951 as The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield has been synonymous with "cynical adolescent." Holden narrates the story of a couple of days in his sixteen-year-old life, just after he's been expelled from prep school, in a slang that sounds edgy even today and keeps this novel on banned book lists. It begins,"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.
