Produktbeschreibung:From Amazon.co.uk:Since his debut in 1951 as
The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield has been synonymous with "cynical adolescent". Holden narrates the story of a couple of days in his 16-year-old life, just after he's been expelled from prep school, in a slang that sounds edgy even today and keeps this novel on banned book lists. It begins:
If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. In the first place, that stuff bores me, and in the second place, my parents would have about two haemorrhages apiece if I told anything pretty personal about them.
His constant wry observations about what he encounters, from teachers to phonies (the two of course are not mutually exclusive), capture the essence of the eternal teenage experience of alienation. --

"like Holden Caufield, I tell myself, theres got to be a better way.." Dexter Holland
Sometimes I need a book to keep me away a few hours in between things. That book is The Catcher in the Rye, the masterpiecce of first-person American fiction.

Salinger's book was so often misunderstood. It is one of the best books I have ever read.

As so many others I've heard a great deal about this book and was relatively open toward it when we had to read it for a university seminar. After the first few sentences this changed drastically.
To say that the narrator annoyed me would not sufficiently state my anger and dislike about this boring, one-dimensional kid. From page to page I had to suffer this loser's pointless ramblings. Six-feet under would have been a nice place for him to end, but I guess an asylum is just as fitting.
To say this book represents normal problems of teenagers is to say that they all are incapable of dealing with life and need to be medicated. Cause honestly being somewhat brain damaged is the only real problem this character had.
I could not find anything amusing about the story, the language was not overly impressive and the pacing and flow of the story was so shrewd that inbteween I felt I wasn't going to make it to the end, as it was that horrible.

Ich habe das Buch jetzt einmal gelesen und auch wenn es nur ca. 200 Seiten lang ist und sich relativ flüssig lesen lässt, war ich einige Male versucht, es aus der Hand zu legen. Das liegt nicht an der Geschichte selbst, die ich wirklich einnehmend und interessant fand. Ein Jugendlicher, der mit der Oberflächlichkeit der Gesellschaft nicht zurecht kommt, nach seinem Platz in der Welt sucht und innerlich gegen alles rebelliert. Holden soll nach meinem Verständnis eine Person darstellen, die viel beobachtet, nachdenkt und von allen äußeren Eindrücken sehr verwirrt wird. Nur leider wird dies meiner Meinung nach von der sprachlichen Ausführung und dem Aufbau des Buches nicht transportiert. Mich hat der Autor mit seiner Art zu schreiben und Gedanken zu formulieren nicht überzeugt. Es war sehr schwer, das Innere von Holden zu erkennen sowie seine Gefühle nachzuvollziehen. So lernt man ihn in erster Linie als arroganten, überheblichen Schnösel kennen, der alle anderen Menschen aburteilt, ...

Ich weiß nicht, warum dieses Buch so vielen Menschen und mehreren Mitschülern aus meiner Klasse gefällt, aber ich kann an diesem Buch nichts Hervorragendes oder Nennenswertes finden!!!
Der Text ist simpel geschrieben. In Englisch ist es ein bisschen schwieriger, da ich nicht an die amerikanische Slang-Sprache gewohnt bin, doch nach einigen Kapiteln fiel mir das Lesen nicht mehr schwer.
Die Handlung ist langweilig. Außerdem ist mir der Hauptcharakter, Holden Caulfield, gar nicht symphatisch! Unsere Klassenlehrerin hat letztens gefragt, wer alles mit Holden, exisitiere er in der realen Welt, ausgehen wolle. Daraufhin haben sich mehr als die Hälfte der Mädchen in der Klasse gemeldet. Warum?, fragte ich mich.
Holden scheint psychisch krank zu sein. Doch in dem Buch wirkt er teils unhöflich und man kann es ihm nicht recht machen.
Ich denke nicht, dass ich zu jung für dieses Buch bin (16 J.).
Das ständig unentschlossene Hin-und-her-Handeln von Holden nervt mich ...
