The Catcher In The Rye

I read this book a couple years ago. I read it because it reminded me of a boy that went to a prep school and had a kind of life that Holden had. He also didn't really do well in school. Sometimes I like to visit other people through stories that take me back to my memory of them.

I decided that instead of investing in a house that I would invest in memories. That these memories could be recalled at will and that a person had the capacity to not only remember, but also to feel the emotions of that memory. I mean that that is what memories are to me...emotional experiences.

So this week I watched a movie that was mentioned in the book. Holden right up front on page 2 says, "If there's one thing I hate it's the movies. Don't even mention them to me." What is funny is the book is peppered with references to shows and movies. So there is this one movie that he takes his sister to ten times. He says that Phoebe loves this movie and has memorized every line. So I thought I better watch it also.

So Phoebe liked this movie...and I think this might say something about her, as a character in this book. So if you are a Catcher In The Rye fan then I hope you enjoy this.
