The Catcher in the Rye, by J. D. Salinger, chapter 14, Narrated by Isaac Birchall
In this chapeter, Holden sits in his room and smokes and remembers excluding Allie from playing a game shortly before his death, and Holden still feels guilty about now including him. Finally, he goes to bed, and he feels like praying, but his dislike of organised religion prevents him from going through with it. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door. Maurice, the elevator operator has returned with Sunny to collect the extra $5 dollars that he claims to be owed. Holden refuses, and Maurice pins him to the ground while sunny takes the money from Holden’s wallet. Maurice then flicks Holden in the groin. Holden retaliates by insulting them both, only to be met with a fist driven into his stomach. Holden then pretends to be a movie character that has been shot n the stomach, and finally falls asleep.

    I have to admit. That was some very good writing. You always know it’s good when you forget it’s a book. You get caught up in what is going on. Visualizing and all that. Thanks. I do have a new respect for this book. I am really seeing Holden’s emotion more. It’s not as scary now. He is much more an adolescent facing adulthood: hating being a child at times and wanting to remain a child at others. My therapist once told me that teenagers can seem like sociopaths for a time. It’s all the self awareness they experience. I suppose this is what I was thinking Holden was a psycho. Lol

    Hey man I don’t know if you’ll respond but I have to write a response paper about the meaning of the book and what literary devices were used to get the meaning across. It’s due Wednesday and this is where I’m at in the book. If I’m being honest I like the book but I don’t know the meaning of it per se. thanks g 🙏
