Holden ist ein ganz normaler amerikanischer Jugendlicher, der Schulstreß hat und schließlich vom Internat fliegt. Nebenbei liest er gerne Bücher und macht die ersten Erfahrungen mit der Liebe.
Ein amüsant zu lesender Roman über das Erwachsenwerden.
Klappentext:
The "brilliant, funny, meaningful novel" (The New Yorker) that established J. D. Salinger as a leading voice in American literature--and that has instilled in millions of readers around the world a lifelong love of books.
"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."
The hero-narrator of The Catcher in the Rye is an ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden Caufield. Through circumstances that tend to preclude adult, secondhand description, he leaves his prep school in Pennsylvania and goes underground in New York City for three days.
Rezension:
"In Mr. Salinger we have a fresh voice. One can actually hear it speaking, and what is has to say is uncannily true, perceptive, and compassionate."-Clifton Fadiman, Book-of-the-Month Club News
