Three things annoy me so much about [i]Catcher[/i]: (1) the assumption that all white teen boys will like and sympathize with Holden uncritically, (2) how many of them [i]do[/i], and (3) how the girls in high school English get absolutely ignored when talking about it.
I mean, Ignatius is an absolute trash bag, but at least that book doesn’t pretend he’s anything [i]but[/i], and there’s not this ready-made hagiography surrounding him.
