The Catcher in the Rye

I just finished reading The Catcher in the Rye for the second time and simply adored the book. There are quite some attributes about Holden's personality that I can assimilate my self with. We are both atheists and are reluctant towards violence, thats being pacifists and all. Another similarity is that we both tend to react and experience things emotionally.

The first time I read the book was in high school, which was part of compulsory reading. I now think that I wasn't mature enough to appreciate and comprehend the book fully and am glad that I decided to read it again, only this time in its designated language, English. I find that a literary piece is best experienced and enjoyed in the language the author has written it.
