Casual reader here
Hey /lit/ should I read the catcher in the rye? I'm interested since I watched Ghost in the shell wich was inspired heavily on this book. I heard it has bad fame as well for the Lennon shooter and all that
So well /lit/...should i read it?
>>
Yes it's my favourite book I'd recommend it
>>
You won't understand it without reading the Greeks beforehand.
>>
No, you should read The Recognitions instead, it's like The Catcher In The Rye on steroids.
>>

Yes but first integrate the entire western canon.

They also talk about Flowers for Algernon in GitS, it's far more GitS-esque than Catcher and very accessible. Very quaint book
