I chose " The catcher in the rye" for my summer reading. You know, this story is very famous and translated into Japanese, too. I think everyone has heard this title at least once before.
The reason I chose this is that I have never read this famous story before and in this opportunity I want to read literature work like the story.
This story is mainly about the boy, whose name is Holden and who is about 16 years old. He has mane complains about school or family, so he is disobedient against evrything. This story starts at the scene that Holden leaves his school. After that, he experiences many things thorough the days in New York by himself and grows up.
While I read this book, I have some agreements with him because I myself have some complex about my family and sometime complainments like him. Totally, Holeden's characteristics reflects on the situation of current young people, so this book is maybe suitable for young people reading.
It is hard to summarize this story because this is composed by Holden's life. However, we can see young people's feeling, so I want more and more students to read this book.
I read "The catcher in the rye", too!
返信削除At first,I couldn't understand his feeling towards people and the world,because it was too complicated for me!
However as reading through this, I came to understand it.I recommend young people(around Holden's age) to read this book, too!!
Nice reaction, Yoko! Some parts seem to need a little more development of ideas, but I agree with you that this is a good book for young people to read. Which parts did you especially like or dislike or react strongly too?
