J.D. Salingers erster und einziger Roman “Der Fänger Roggen” erzählt vom Erwachsenwerden, der ersten Liebe und der Verlogenheit unserer Leistungsgesellschaft. Eine Geschichte, die seit 1951 Generationen von Leserinnen und Lesern geprägt hat. Ein Klassiker der amerikanischen Literatur. Der sechzehnjährige Holden Caulfield läuft tief in seine Gedanken versunken durch das verschneite New York: Gerade ist er das dritte Mal von der Schule geflogen, seinen wohlhabenden Eltern kann und möchte er das eigentlich nicht schon wieder erklären. Um den unvermeidlichen Streit noch etwas hinauszuzögern, mietet er sich kurzerhand in einem zwielichtigen Hotel ein. In den folgenden Tagen trifft ihn die volle Wucht der Großstadt und die Härte des Erwachsenwerdens. „‘Der Fänger im Roggen‘ ist so realistisch, dass es weh tut, und all die verwirrten Erwachsenen werden ihn zu ihrem eigenen Vergnügen verschlingen und ihn sofort vor ihren Kindern verstecken.“ Los Angeles Times
