A True ClassicMar 07, 2010 A Genuine, True Classic. Once you read it again, you realize what a profound effect it had on American literature at the time. What a tragedy that Salinger went into seclusion and deprived the world (except his family) of his talent. Hopefully a family member will publish his work soon. The Catcher in the Rye
I remember it well!Mar 06, 2010 Talk about going back in time! I remember reading this in school over 50 years ago...and what memories it brings back. Good stuff...I feel like a kid again!
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. SalingerMar 05, 2010 After J.D. Salinger died, my 92-year-old mother expressed interest in reading The Catcher in the Rye, so I ordered a used copy of the book The Catcher in the Rye through Amazon.com and had it sent to her. She really enjoyed reading it and gave a review of it at her retirement home book club. She told them she loved the book. I asked for her comments for this book review, and she said:
"I was curious because I heard that after J.D. Salinger died the book is deemed a classic. I hadn't read it because at one time it was banned. I learned a lot about Holden Caulfield--coming of age. I laughed a lot when reading great descriptions of characters. I could gloss over swear words. A fun book open- ended."
Awesome Quality!Mar 03, 2010 Thanks for the quick delivery and the quality was BETTER than it eluded to on the description! Thanks so much! RIP JD.

The catcher In The RyeMar 03, 2010 As of today I have not completed this book. So far I have been very disappointed. It is not for children to read as it is so vulgar it disgust me. I am no prude but it seems no sentence is complete with out repeated curse words. Louise
