 tcher in the Rye"</a>&nbsp\;by J.D. Salinger.</p>\n<p>"The hero-narrator o
 f The Catcher in the Rye is an ancient child of sixteen\, a native New Yor
 ker named Holden Caulfield. Through circumstances that tend to preclude ad
 ult\, secondhand description\, he leaves his prep school in Pennsylvania a
 nd goes underground in New York City for three days. The boy himself is at
  once too simple and too complex for us to make any final comment about hi
 m or his story. Perhaps the safest thing we can say about Holden is that h
 e was born in the world not just strongly attracted to beauty but\, almost
 \, hopelessly impaled on it. There are many voices in this novel: children
 's voices\, adult voices\, underground voices-but Holden's voice is the mo
 st eloquent of all.."-- MCPL Catalogue.</p>\n<p>Print copies may be availa
