Catcher is both fedoracore and fedora repellant. People who understand it know Holden is just in the middle of a cringeworthy part of his adolescence, but neckbeard dudes typically identify with Holden because they have not outgrown this phase.

So referring to a work by its original name (as the author intended) is now ``fedora''? Next you'll tell me you actually read it in translation...

>both fedoracore and fedora repellant.

which other books/authors meet that criterion?

>> No.11990140

Fedorans hate CITR because everybody read it in high school, and it remains a favorite of people who haven't read anything since high school (among others). The fedora imagines himself smarter than these people and thus hates it. Another post a couple weeks/months ago summed this up better, saying that as much as "person who loves [CITR/Great Gatsby/Infinite Jest]" has emerged as a recognizable stereotype, so has "person who hates [those books]." Fedorim fall into the latter camp more frequently than the first.

And I mean to say that people think they understand him, but they don't read him. I think that's the majority of philosophers though.

/lit/ is pure fedora now. >>11990140
people like to meme things they cant understand. even then the new memes arent even at least funny. most of the time the books are spot on in describing themselves, which they push away with memes. as fedora as a sour graping virgin.
