"The Catcher in the Rye" THEME 2 -- "The Catcher in the Rye" ... from 60second Recap™

[ www.60secondrec... ]
J. D. Salinger dishes up the themes in "The Catcher in the Rye." But theres one that really spills off the plate: Holden Caulfields continuing efforts to distance himself from everybody (except his sister Phoebe). In Holden Caulfield, Salinger has created a character who is self-absorbed and repulsive. And yet, we end up rooting for Holden anyway. Why? Watch.

@Billyfillyfoo It'd be difficult to take cliffs-notes seriously if they were done in dramatic reading style. :P

@Billyfillyfoo You make a good point, but bear in mind that while Holden would hate this person, Sallinger would probably be a little bit less cynical. We don't make reviews to appeal to the main character of a book or movie. But yes, this person is a phony.
