Most Censored and Most Challenged. Yet Mystifying!

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?

Holden Caulfield in the book The Catcher in the Rye, written by J. D. Salinger.

Because it best portrays a person’s confused state of growing up and how he copes with what’s called ‘coming of age’.

The language and the writing style of author J. D. Salinger just strikes a chord. So powerful.

Seven decades and it is still mystifying.

And, the novel was one of the most censored and most challenged in history. Best reviews. 

“An unusually brilliant novel” as said in an article by The New York Times.
