Article review of J.D. Salinger

I can only make a few connections. One of which is very random. The random connection is to the hermit crab simile of Salinger. I just thought about how my step brother had hermit crabs. Random I know. I have also seen multiple accounts of people taking things the wrong way such as Chapman did with the Catcher in the Rye. Which was the ultimate account of taking things the wrong way. Murder is wrong!! I have felt sort of like Salinger when he wanted to just seclude himself from everyone. The interpretations of Holden are pretty much on the nose with my interpretations. All though I most likely would not call him a hero. This article has sort of pushed me in the direction of what Salinger was trying to be. As well as what he wanted to do. The last paragraph pretty much summed it up. As quoted, "Just because I'm so horribly conditioned to accept everybody Else's values, and just because I like applause and people to rave about me, doesn't make it right. I'm ashamed of it. I am sick of it." The quote carry on but it is very long.
