About This Novel
The original title of "The Catcher in the Rye" is the only full-length novel by American writer Jerome David Salinger. Salinger limited the beginning and end of the story to the three days when 16-year-old middle school student Holden Caulfield left school and wandered around New York. He also used the stream-of-consciousness writing method to fully explore the inner world of a teenage boy. Anger and anxiety are the two major themes of this book. The protagonist's experiences and thoughts resonate strongly among teenagers and are warmly welcomed by readers, especially middle school students. The New York Times book review wrote: In the United States, reading "The Catcher in the Rye" is as important as getting the approval of your instructor for graduation. Later, "The Catcher in the Rye" directly influenced the creation of this type of novel.
