You didn't read the book to the end, did you ?

It starts with piss and shit, but the second half, January and February are full of the good stuff, especially the latter, which is all about murder.

Yeah, that's kind of the entire point of The Catcher in the Rye. Holden's emotionally scarred by the death of his brother.

Honestly, that's a lot more interesting than the shitty book you expected.

I didn't think he was particularly scarred. He was just growing up. For me at least it perfectly captures that awkward teenage stage everyone went through.

I've never understood the hatred towards CitR on this board.
I read it, and thought "Oh its just about a whiny teen, everyone's a phony, etc.".

Then I read 9 Stories, and found it so much more intelligent and deep than my initial reaction to CitR.

This made me suspect that perhaps the problem wasn't so much Salinger being a bad writer as it was me not understanding what he wanted to portray.

So I re-read CitR, looking deeper than the surface story, and it was so much better...

If you hated it, I highly recommend re-reading it with a fresh mindset.

The first four chapters and the family tree are mostly Nabokov trolling critics. I suggest you reread, it's marvelous.

it's toynbee and spengler, the book is this really weird thing about waxing and waning cultures, cultural pressures creating warrior elites, collective unconsciousnesses purging stagnant societies, semi psychic race consciousness etc

Come on guys, it's existentialism! It means finding meaning in life through what you hope to accomplish, through working towards a goal. Did you expect anything else besides a man working to better his world no matter what the odds?

Also, the same applies to The Nausea.
