What's there to say, really? Brilliantly written look inside the mind of one of the most honest protagonists ever, and suprisingly uplifting. Cynicism isn't an affliction, sometimes it's a well earned perspective. Salinger made every character sound and speak differently, not an easy feat. Glad I somehow missed this in high school, I'm able to appreciate it so much more now.

«O que realmente me enche as medidas é um livro que, depois de acabarmos de o ler, nos faça desejar que o autor que o escreveu fosse um grande amigo nosso e pudéssemos telefonar-lhe sempre que nos desse para aí.».

Estou neste momento a desejar poder telefonar a J. D. Salinger. Pela segunda vez na minha vida senti que estava a conhecer realmente uma personagem de um livro. Vou sentir a falta do Holden, dos seus palavrões e dos seus anseios. Qualquer dia revisitá-lo-ei.
