Catcher In the Rye, Lit Analysis

1. Angst angst angst swear curse swear crazy crazy angst swear curse, society sucks, and I'm a stupid jerk.

2. To be completely honest, I couldn't really find a theme to this book. If you have an idea of one please share. To me this books was just the tale of an average boy who seemed extremely DONE with life.

3. The authors tone was very dull, judgemental, void of sympathy for most everyone. Holden Caulfield finds almost each and every person he meets to be a phony. Then shuns them from his mind. But because of this, he is left with no one who understands him. Alone. Half his story is him wandering in search of someone to talk to. Yet all his potential candidates end up (in his mind) being phony and not worth his time.
