Book Review of The Catcher in the Rye

The Catcher in the Rye
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 1


Don't read this book if you're not willing to go deeper and figure out what it really means. It's almost not a book in the literal sense... it doesn't try to be a book. usually in books there are two levels: the literal and the figurative, and the symbolic, figurative level is usually explored by the author. this book leaves you to determine the symbolism in your own mind. don't judge this book by how it's written (because that honestly doesn't get it very far) but by what it stands for.
