The hero-narrator of THE CATCHER IN THE RYE is an ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden Caulfield. Through circumstances that tend to preclude adult, secondhand description, he leaves his prep school in Pennsylvania and goes underground in New York City for three days.\n
The boy himself is at once too simple and too complex for us to make any final comment about him or his story. Perhaps the safest thing we can say about Holden is that he was born in the world not just strongly attracted to beauty but, almost, hopelessly impaled on it.\n
There are many voices in this novel: children's voices, adult voices, underground voices--but Holden's voice is the most eloquent of all. Transcending his own vernacular, yet remaining marvelously faithful to it, he issues a perfectly articulated cry of mixed pain and pleasure. However, like most lovers and clowns and poets of the higher orders, he keeps most of the pain to, and for, himself. The pleasure he gives away, or sets aside, with all his heart. It is there for the reader who can handle it to keep.\n","brand":{"@type":"Brand","name":"Little, Brown & Company"},"sku":2899920,"image":"https://cdn-r.fishpond.com.au/0002/899/920/1711962418/6.jpeg","offers":[{"@type":"Offer","gtin13":"9780316769488","sellURL":"9780316769488","identifier":283951880,"image":["https://cdn-r.fishpond.com.au/0002/899/920/1711962418/6.jpeg","https://cdn-r.fishpond.com.au/0002/899/920/1711455585/6.jpeg","https://cdn-r.fishpond.com.au/0002/899/920/1687432541/6.jpeg"],"priceSpecification":{"@type":"PriceSpecification","price":17.39,"priceCurrency":"AUD","priceTooHigh":false,"description":"","hasFeeForRD":false,"showBestPriceBadge":false,"perUnit":false},"availability":"InStock","name":"The Catcher in the Rye","itemOffered":{"@type":"Book","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Salinger, Jerome D."}],"bookFormat":"Paperback","numberOfPages":224,"inLanguage":"English","datePublished":"1991-05-01","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Little, Brown & Company","location":"United States"},"isbn":"0316769487","identifier":[{"@type":"PropertyValue","name":"Dimensions","value":"17 x 10.4 x 2 centimetres (0.11 kg)"}],"description":{"@type":"PropertyValue","value":"Anyone who has read J.D.

Their most prized foods were food sources highest in saturated fats! Saturated fats, especially raw are crutial to good health and building healthy strong children. What we are being told by the so called \"health experts\" comes from false science connected to greed and more.\nIts been over 3 years since I read this book, I have also became a member of the Weston A Price Foundation who are doing an excellent job.

I found that the essay in this collection on England and socialism was particularly intriguing due to the curious point-of-view presented by George Orwell. I highly recommend this book.","reviewRating":[{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4},{"@type":"EndorsementRating","bestRating":100,"worstRating":-100,"ratingValue":0}]}],"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingCount":14000,"ratingValue":4.01,"author":{"@type":"Organization","@legalName":"Goodreads Inc"}},"category":"Books","mainItemBarcode":"9780141019000","additionalProperty":[{"@type":"PropertyValue","name":"newOrUsed","value":false}],"showSellYoursBox":false,"sellYoursCopyTextPrefix":"","allowListSellYours":true}]
