Holden Caulfield Watching Phoebe on the carousel ~ "I was so damn happy all of a sudden . I don't know why.It was just that she looked so damn nice, the way she kept going round and round, in her blue coat and all.God, I wish you could have been there." (Paperback edition courtesy of Lawrence Miller.) J. D. Salinger's novel, The Catcher in the Rye, has become an icon for teenage rebellion and adolescent confusion. The theme of the importance of family throughout the book perhaps contributes to the book's lasting attraction. Above hard cover: First published in Britain 1951 by Hamish Hamilton Ltd. 2nd impression 1955.
