Story of Holden Caufield with his idiosyncrasies, penetrating insight, confusion, sensitivity and negativism. Holden, knowing he is to be expelled from school, decides to leave early. He spends three days in New York City and tells the story of what he did and suffered there.
This book resonated much too well with me.
J'ai enfin lu ce classique de la littérature américaine et je comprends pourquoi il fascine autant depuis des décennies. C'est assurément une réussite, même si le silence médiatique de son auteur a sans doute également joué beaucoup dans son statut d'oeuvre culte.
