Sup /lit/, Tha' Keyboard Assassin up in here.

I was just wondering if you had any comments on some symbols in Catcher in the Rye meant.

1. The sidewalks that Holden walks on
2. The taxi driver's accent
3. Why checkers and not chess?
4. Stradlater's method of shaving

>>1804029
Chess would imply that he's playing a grander, more intelligent game in life, and suggesting that he can handle situations with adult grace and maturity. But instead he's playing checkers, an easy children's game.

Anyway, do your own homework. If you can't even read something as simple as Catcher in the Rye, I weep for your generation.
