[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pro-Salinger PP here - Holden was supposed to be a jerk! Not every character has to be 'likeable'. Have you guys ever read Lolita? [/quote] Yes, I love The Catcher in the Rye. My teen son definitely pegged Holden as a PITA and recognized some of his less charming behavior in him. [/quote] I thought it was a useful way to understand how depression can make you unlikeable to everyone, including yourself. If you read it as One Teenager's Quest, it sucks. If you look at it as what happens to a privileged family when death takes one of the children, it's a lot better. [/quote]
