Chapter 1
Salinger's first chapter introduces the
main character and narrator— Holden. The first and second-person narration
engages both the psychologist to whom he is speaking as well as the
reader. The reader is first struck by the lack of organization which
Holden employs to convey his message. The stream-of-consciousness
narration seems to have no recognizable pattern; there are many
digressions to other subjects making it apparent that Holden himself
doesn't know exactly what he’ll say next.
Holden first mentions
his brother, D.B., who is a writer in Hollywood. Yet Holden doesn't seem
to care for his brother's activities too much, admitting that D.B. is
"being a prostitute." Secondly, Holden describes his dissatisfaction with
his school, Pencey Prep., where the slogan, "molding boys into splendid,
clear-thinking young men," doesn't seem applicable. Holden thinks that too
many of the people at Pencey are "phonies"-- a term he uses to describe
anyone who exhibits some sort of human frailty. Often these frailties
include conceit, apathy, and ignorance.
