The Catcher in the Rye

"Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody."

                                                              
                                                     - The sum of everything sixteen year old Holden Caulfield learned over the course of an eventful weekend involving a football game, a fistfight, running away from boarding school, an awkwardly thoughtful conversation with a prostitute, getting beat up by a pimp, breaking in his own home, a date, sleeping in Grand Central Station, premeditated child molestation, heavy drinking, god and ducks. 



The Catcher in the Rye, a polarizing American novel where you either identify yourself with the narrator or you don't, by J.D. Salinger.
