The Catcher in the Rye


Front Cover


I read another interesting book today - The Catcher in the Rye. It is a first person narrative of a teenage boy named Haulden Caulfied who is going through a phase of teen alienation. He is kicked out of his school and the book follows his thoughts of desperation, confusion, sexual fantasies, love, alienation, and his views of the World.

One interesting quote from the book is as follows:
"An immature man is willing to die for a noble cause, but a mature man lives humbly for it."
