Also I vaguely remember what the book was about. I read it on a leisure time. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I think the book&amp;nbsp;was starting from&amp;nbsp;him who got expelled and&amp;nbsp;went&amp;nbsp;back&amp;nbsp;home.&amp;nbsp;Since he&amp;nbsp;did not want to see his parents&amp;nbsp;so&amp;nbsp;soon, he&amp;nbsp;had gone&amp;nbsp;to different places. It&amp;nbsp;was&amp;nbsp;like a journey&amp;nbsp;going from one place to another.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I think&amp;nbsp;Holden was sort of the guy who embodied teenagers.&amp;nbsp;You know the way he did and&amp;nbsp;he thought in the book&amp;nbsp;was something, seemingly,&amp;nbsp;they had&amp;nbsp;been through.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you break up the book,&amp;nbsp;the protagonist tells many things.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;From academic point of view, he was probably a loser.&amp;nbsp;What on the earth he got expelled from&amp;nbsp;school&amp;nbsp;to school!&amp;nbsp;He should be ashamed of himself.&amp;nbsp;That&amp;nbsp;was one of the reason he did not&amp;nbsp;want to see his parents. But he wanted to see his little sister. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;He&amp;nbsp;was&amp;nbsp;such a loser. &amp;nbsp;I remember that&amp;nbsp;he went to a bar,&amp;nbsp;drinking the mixing up&amp;nbsp;soda and Scotch, and dancing with those women who wanted to meet Cooper.&amp;nbsp;Later he&amp;nbsp;called sex service.&amp;nbsp;However, &amp;nbsp;he did&amp;nbsp;not make out with a prostitute&amp;nbsp;for&amp;nbsp;whatever &amp;nbsp;reason. He talked about the ducks in the&amp;nbsp;Central Park. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The book divides into three parts and an appendix. Frankly, I do not remeber much&amp;nbsp;the first part. The second part&amp;nbsp; is about Winston and Julia;&amp;nbsp;they&amp;nbsp;live in a society where Big Brother is watching you with telescreens and spying by others.&amp;nbsp;The third part is about the torture on Winston.&amp;nbsp;For me the last part is very hard for me to read.&amp;nbsp;The way&amp;nbsp;the author describes how Winston&amp;nbsp;being torture is&amp;nbsp;so horrific. I can only think a thing that had me with such effect was the scary movie I first watched. The visual image and the feeling from the last part of book is still with me. It is so horrid that I could not get rid of. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you &lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
