Is Catcher in the Rye supposed to have faded pages near the end? My copy does, and I'm not sure if it's a printing error or a stylistic gimmick. I'll be a little disappointed if it' not a gimmick, actually, it seems like a neat idea.

Total bullshit non-category. Everything in a language I can't speak is "ergodic literature".
