Course Hero Summary and Analysis

Crash Course 1

The Catcher in the Rye Part 1 | Crash Course English Literature #106In which John Green examines JD Salinger's novel The Catcher in the Rye (video one of two). John pulls out the old school literary criticism by examining the text itself rather than paying attention to the biographical or historical context of the novel (that's for the next video). The Catcher in the Rye has managed to endure without a movie adaptation because a lot of its quality arises from the book's language.

Salinger and The Catcher in the Rye’s Holden Caulfield“It is with Salinger’s experience of the Second World War in mind that we should understand Holden Caulfield’s insight at the Central Park carousel, and the parting words of The Catcher in the Rye: “Don’t ever tell anybody anything.
