I haven't read any of these posts since last Thursday and I read them in
chronological order so bear with me; this road again? The rain hasn't even
washed away all the blood stains yet and Matt pokes the slumbering creatures
with a stick. If any thing, the poke should arouse Robbie again.

Jim: Holden is always Holden despite being read in good and even on quite
bad translations. The character always find its way through."
So, Holden is an incorruptable substance? A Platonic ideal manifested with
tweaks and nuances in English or in Spanish? Would this make Salinger's
Holden itself only one instance of an immutable ur-Holden? Phenomenon vs.
noumenon? Or is Salinger's Holden the thing-in-itself?
