>> No.13744643

The closest would be Holden Caulfield, but his problem arises from the issue of "authenticity," which, though it leads him to certain quandaries which I share, is itself not something that concerns me. So you could say that the book approaches problems which I experience, but does so from the wrong angle. I've never found anything that replicates my own thoughts in a fully accurate manner.
