Title: A Must-Read!!
Review: After reading this book, I wouldn't go so far as to say that there is a Holden Caulfield in all of us. I will say that no matter how contentiously worded they are, Holden's complaints about society are warranted. The basis of his cynicism -which is, in short, the cruelties and shortcomings of human nature- is no less a substantial basis today than it was decades ago, when the book was written. Holden's psychological state magnetizes the analytical reader, and is a queerly nagging force that makes it almost uncomfortable to admit when som off-the-wall comment he spouts makes sense. There are no answers to life's questions in this book, but I recommend it to all who know better than to expect answers from a depressed and lonely teenaged boy.
