I first heard of this book in McCourt's Teacher Man, when ... (continue)

Me lo ricordavo un po' noiosetto ed effettivamente lo è ancora, nonostante la lettura in lingua originale lo renda migliore perché l'inglese, almeno da parlante non nativa, non mi è parso invecchiato rispetto al presente, mentre l'unica traduzione italiana esistente era già vecchia quando ho letto i ...

Vattelapesca?
Nella traduzione italiana, mi dicono, "and all" diventa "e vattelapesca". Passi il gergo giovanile del tempo che fu, ma "vattelapesca" invecchia (è bell'e morto), "and all" no. Ammesso che tutti i lettori italiani abbiano la stessa edizione del Giovane Holden, mi chiedo se possa piacere comun ... (continue)

The story is simple but strongly engaging - it's about the brief adventure of a cynical youngster, Holden Caulfield, who hated "phony" stuff. He may not seem to be very likeable, but as you read the story you can clearly feel his pain, loneliness and disillusion in this world of phoniess and hypocrisy. At certain points I wondered: is he rotten, or is the world rotten? Or both? Is he or the world insane? A very thought-provoking book indeed.
