Hello, My sister seemd to think that "the Catcher in The Rye" is self serving. I think that i agree with her, but i think its sopposed to be that way. What does everyone else think? Altough "The Catcher In The Rye" is a really good book it IS NOT (in my opinion) Salinger's best book, it's just really well known. As well known as it is though i ave talk to people before who thought it was about baseball!!!!!!!!! How can a book possibly be so well known yet no one knows what its about? ~Blythe Merrithew~
