The point of Catcher in the Rye is a story. That's all, it's not magic realism, which I can appreciate doesn't tell a linear tale
it's just a story about a character who is cunt with no redeeming features, and before you start I don't expect to love all characters to like the story, but he doesn't do anything either. THe story is a shit unlikeable cunt thinks he's better than he is, he leaves home, he gets punched by a pimp for being a cunt and he goes home again. That's it.

There is nothing more to the writing.

It would probably be different if he was presented as an anti-hero.
But he isn't even one of them.

I want to see Dozer defend it without using the term "post-modern".

I want to see Dozer defend it without every single thing he posts coming out like "I'm a fucking retard with a pet that should only be kept by a six year old"
