Synopsis
The "brilliant, funny, meaningful novel" (The New Yorker) that established J. D. Salinger as a leading voice in American literature--and that has instilled in millions of readers around the world a lifelong love of books.
"If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth."
The hero-narrator of The Catcher in the Rye is an ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden Caufield. Through circumstances that tend to preclude adult, secondhand description, he leaves his prep school in Pennsylvania and goes underground in New York City for three days.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Condition: Near Fine. Hardcover with dust jacket in Good condition. 2020 hardcover reprint, 78th printing, retaining the classic Michael Mitchell dust-jacket design. Black cloth cover with bright gilt spine lettering. Book is clean and square with minimal signs of handling; boards, corners, text block, and interior remain well preserved. Pictorial Michael Mitchell dust jacket is complete and unclipped, with bright front and spine panels, light edge and corner wear, and noticeable rubbing, soiling, and scattered discoloration across the rear panel. Listing photos show the exact copy included in this sale. Classic American coming-of-age novel following sixteen-year-old Holden Caulfield after he leaves his Pennsylvania prep school and spends several days wandering New York City. Beneath his sarcasm and contempt for "phoniness" are grief over the death of his brother Allie, loneliness, emotional instability, and fear of entering the adult world. His relationship with his younger sister Phoebe sharpens the novel's concern with childhood innocence and the desire to protect it. Holden's intimate first-person voice makes the novel an enduring portrait of adolescent alienation and a frequently discussed example of the unreliable teenage narrator. The book remains culturally controversial for its profanity, sexuality, psychological distress, and long history of challenges and censorship, while continuing to attract readers interested in troubled adolescents, outsider perspectives, grief, authenticity, and the loss of innocence.
