The Catcher in the Rye #8

There are a couple themes in the book The Catcher in the Rye. A small on is uniquiness. It is because Holden Caulfield a very different, unique person. He is very judgement and he acts like a tough guy. Okay mayby he is not that unique everyone is like that. Holden has a hard time growing up. I think it is because he is a middle child and he likes the attention. He says he does not like his parents much, but everyone says that. He flunked out of school. That was a sign that showed that he wants and needs some attention from his parents. He is not mature to realize that he does not want this kind of attention. When he went to go and visit his sister he did not want to get caught by his partents. He snuck in quietly and did not make any noise. When he was leaving, he said that he did not care if his parents caught him. I think he wanted them to catch him so they would have to spend some time with him. This makes Holden very immature. The novel is mostly about his way to becoming mature. He takes everything lightly and he seculdes himself. He does this because he is such a negative nancy. He does not like very many things. They only thing I could tell that he liked was his sister. He loved her very much and he did not critize her at all. Another theme is that we need to apply oursleves in the activities we do. Holden goes and stays the night and an ex teachers house. The teacher was talking to him about becoming mature and actually trying in school instead of just blowing it off like Holden as always done. He told Holden that he might be surprised to find out that he is good at something and he should find something he loves to do and he should do it.
