The Catcher in the Rye
Well I decided to take a small break from the studies. Biology isn't looking too good right about now, but than again it never did have an appealing side. English on the other hand should be simple. The quartely tomorrow is based on " The Catcher in the Rye" which I loved. I was reading through Sparknotes (good old Sparknotes) when I happened to stumble across some information which kind of "hit home" for me. For those who are interested, which may be a slim amount lol, this is for you....
"As readers, we can see that Holden’s alienation is the cause of most of his pain. He never addresses his own emotions directly, nor does he attempt to discover the source of his troubles. He desperately needs human contact and love, but his protective wall of bitterness prevents him from looking for such interaction. Alienation is both the source of Holden’s strength and the source of his problems."
Interesting. Well good luck on your exams everyone! I know I'll need it. Much Love
