Sky felt the light weight of his bag on his back, and the cold wind of winter on his face. He stopped and looked around realizing that nobody was here except for him and and a shadowy figure in the distance.
Sky felt something hit his leg he looked down to see an umbrella with a little dried blood on it. Sky’s head jerked up to see that the figure had moved closer.
Sky’s muscles tensed he took a step back. Whoever that person was he took a step closer to him. Sky turned around dropping his bag running as fast as he could. He dared not look back to see if he was being followed.
He kept turning corners with no life that he saw. There was nobody anywhere. He ran into a building throwing his back against it and sinking to the ground panting.

“ Why? Did you forget that a killer is following us.
“Is he following us though? We would have seen him by now and,”
“And what. I probably ticked him off by kicking him, and you want us to stop.”
“Rin. I wanted us to stop so we can think of how to get out of Vale. So have you been thinking how to get out, or were you just planning on running out and away so you can lost. Get us lost in a city with a killer, a serial killer at that. So tell me Rin will you think about this or do you just want to tire yourself so you can get killed.”
Rin just looked at him. She knew he had a point they would die if they just ran around. “ OK, Sky what do you want to do. Cause frankly I don't know where we are.”
Sky’s eyes widened and he looked around realizing that he had no idea where they were either. “ OK, we can figure this out.”
“ How it’s not like we can fly away with unicorns and rainbows.”
Sky looked at her. “ OK then, we just need to get of the city I guess we just walk forward until we escape.”
“ Or we can hide in a building and make shelter there, after all it is getting late.”
“ OK we hide tonight, and in the morning we walk straight ahead to get out of here. Sound like a plan
J.D Salinger gives his personal vision of the world successfully through his persona Holden Caulfield in the ‘Catcher in the Rye’. Caulfield struggles with the background of New York to portray Salinger’s theme – you must live the world as it is, not as you would like it to be. There by exposing Salinger’s vision on the world.
This book is a good book. "What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse. ~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye, Chapter 1
Published in 1951, J. D. Salinger's debut novel, The Catcher in the Rye, was one of the most controversial novels of its time. The book received many criticisms, good and bad. While Smith felt the book should be "read more than once" (13), Goodman said the "book is disappointing" (21). All eight of the critics had both good and bad impressions of the work. Overall, the book did not reflect Salinger's ability due to the excessive vulgarity used and the monotony that Holden imposed upon the reader.
The Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger, describes a period of time in a young
"Why didn't you tell me where you were going, Tegan? I couldn't find you in the house and I was worried."
People go through depressing periods in their lives as teenagers, and some experience it more severely or for longer periods of time than others. In The Catcher in the Rye J.D. Salinger expresses this time of dejection through the protagonist Holden’s thoughts and personal feelings. Holden’s tone reinforces a theme of suicide and depression. He is sarcastic, biter, and occasionally upbeat.
In a novel, the theme is the insight of real life. J.D. Salinger’s initiation novel, The Catcher In The Rye, describes the adventures of 16-year old Holden Caulfield, the protagonist and first person narrator, who refuses to grow up and enter manhood. The most important theme developed by Salinger is Holden’s problem of dealing with change; he has trouble dealing with death, he refuses to accept children’s loss of innocence as a necessary step in the growing-up process, and has difficulties with growing up.
“I swear to God I’m crazy. I admit it.” It is very easy to automatically assume that Holden Caulfield is crazy. It’s even a logical assumption since Caulfield himself admits to being crazy twice throughout the course of the book. However, calling Holden Caulfield crazy is almost the same as calling the majority of the human race crazy also. Holden Caulfield is just an adolescent trying to prevent himself from turning into what he despises the most, a phony. Most of Caulfield’s actions and thoughts are the same as of many people, the difference being that Holden acts upon those thoughts and has them down in writing.
"What, exactly, did you think you were doing?" Reinhardt's calm, but stern voice filtered in through the haze surrounding her head.
From the novel, The Catcher in the Rye, the youthful protagonist Holden Caufield, employs the word “phony” to describe the behavior of a number of characters including Mr. Spencer and Ossenburger, however it is not them who are“phony”, it is the young main character. First, Mr. Spencer, Holden’s ex- history teacher, is not described as phony, but according to the adolescent, his choice of words are. Secondly, according to our main character, Ossenburger is not the generous philanthropist he portrays himself to be, but rather a greedy undertaker. Lastly, the protagonist could quite possibly be the authentic phony. All in all, the main character’s use to describe many other characters in the book is with the single word phony, when in fact the word phony would be the most probable word to describe the lead character.
Alex looked on the ground behind them and observe the cold bodies. “We will sleep here for a while.”
Azure watched the two of them leaping off the cliff. On an Ursa. Plummeting to the ground at mach speed.
“No, sadly I didn’t go back home since I turned after a long time because they were all human and I didn’t want to hurt them,” she replied, as she got up.
“Yeah,” I said. “We should probably get some sleep if we’re gonna get out of the city tomorrow.”
Jerome David Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye is a truly unique novel in terms of writing style. The story is told in a second person narrative style by a character named Holden Caulfield, and is written loosely in a fashion known as 'stream of consciousness writing'.
