Catcher in the Rye chapters 1-18 Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger has intrigued me. I love the way the author writes. It is like Holden is talking right to me‚ telling me all the things that have happened to him. Salinger does leave a little to my imagination. I am always guessing what Holden is really feeling or thinking. Holden’s outlook and perspective on life are displayed on each page and I can hardly ever put the book down. There are many aspects of this book that I truly enjoy. The complex

Passage 1 "I left in a French steamer: The French Steam Ship and she called in every blamed port they have out there‚ for‚ as far as I could see‚ the sole purpose of landing soldiers and custom-house officers. I watched the coast. Watching a coast as it slips by the ship is like thinking about an enigma. Analogy comparing the coast slipping by the ship to a mystery.

Pg. # ‚Quote‚ & Response 25 “Mr. Jones of Manor Farm‚ had locked the hen houses for the night‚ but was too drunk to remember to shut the pop holes.” I think this displays the beginning of the rebellion. Mr. Jones was careless and forgetful. 28 “There‚ comrades‚ is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word – Man.” This shows the feeling towards humans from the point of the animals. 37 “’Comrade’‚ said Snowball‚ ‘those ribbons that you are so devoted to are the badge of slavery

A high fever developed accompanied by constipation. This stage lasted around three days‚ and then the fever suddenly broke and the patient seemed to recover. But only for a few short hours.” This quotation is showing us that this fever wasn’t like the ones they had. Normally their fevers would be able to go down because of the medicine

Q1. I believe that I relate the most to the narrator Paul Bäumer throughout the story. I chose Paul because we do share things in common‚ but because he is the narrator we are able to know and learn the most about him. With Paul narrating everything that happens‚ we are able to experience the events and his feelings towards them.

I was only a member of the Fallen Lamb for a few nights at the time‚ but never had I seen the sea as beautiful as it was then. She glistened a deep blue‚ and clashed against the hard wood of the ship‚ waves rising until it hit the hull then falling back into the sea. Getting used to the constant rocking of the ship was incredibly difficult at first‚ but I managed to retain my balance after a week or so. Anyways‚ I made my way to the main deck‚ passing through the kitchen first so I could grab a bite
