Description
Der Kultroman von J.D. Salinger wurde in den USA zur Bibel gleich mehrerer Jugend-Generationen und ist bis heute eines der bekanntesten Bücher der Weltliteratur. Neben der Sozialkritik, die Salinger seinen Hauptcharakter Holden Caulfield an der verlogenen amerikanischen Gesellschaft der 1950er Jahre üben lässt, stehen vor allem die Widrigkeiten eines jungen Heranwachsenden im Zentrum, der sich weigert, den Erwartungen, die Lehrer, Freunde und die Gesellschaft an ihn stellen, zu entsprechen.

I liked it — the language felt fresh and casual, making it an easy, enjoyable read. I’m not sure I fully grasped the deeper meaning, but I did relate to Holden’s sense of wanting to leave everything behind. It felt real.

I was surprisingly surprised how much I liked this book. For me it's one of those books where you can relate to the character and his story about his day to day life. After getting kicked out of school. I think for me the title is very misleading. When I opened this book I was expecting an old school story about the Midwest, cowboys, or hunters. Back in the western time.
