The Catcher in the Rye

    I have never thought so thin a book which is called The Catcher in the Rye can influence me so much. It makes me feel very impressive. And after reading this book, I have aroused many thoughts about it.

　The protagonist of this novel Holden hated all the hypocritical things and really wanted to pursuit the pure reality at first. I felt this way sometimes the last few years, but as I grow up, some hypocritical things do not seems that phony. In his view, school is a hypocritical place. The purpose that you go to school is only to get a good job or beat others. The surroundings talk about wine, women and sex all days. Holden hates this society. Because of the development of his society, he finally submits to the development process of the social reality. 
　　Perhaps we can find our own shadow in this book. To a certain extent that it reflects many characteristics of the adolescents, and we can also see the dark side of the society. With the material's progress, the spiritual world is inevitably producing some changes. At that time, what we need is a change which can make our dream into a reality. Therefore, what we should do is not to hope, not to wait, not to complain, but from now on, just start from your own efforts and watch your initial dream. You'd try your best to create the life you want with your own hands.

　　Well, I think that though Holden used to seeing the reality of Bourgeois society, and he must compromise with realistic society in the end, he also have many courage to have a try to rebel against the hypocritical world. This spirit should be set up if we want to improve the process of the world.
