Book Report

“The Catcher in the Rye” In the novel, “The Catcher in the Rye,” the narrator is a teenage guy named Holden. Holden is growing up in the time period of the fifties. He is living at a boarding school called Pency. Holden is a unique person. My reaction to how Holden acts is that he acts like an average teenager. Holden usually contradicts himself. Holden says and does things that he says that he hates …

…people do, when he does them himself? Maybe he has a problem where he feels very insecure. Or maybe he is doing these things without realizing that he doing them. Holden is definitely a very unique narrator. We have learned much about him in only a few pages that have been read. He seems to be a person with some problems, but who doesn’t have problems? Especially a teenage guy! We all have problems.
