Abstract: It is not difficult at all to talk about literary creations as quests, initiations or manifestos since the writers™ literary geniuses fulfil this inner need of using art as a tool of expressing attitudes towards or against the outside world that surrounds them. There is a myriad of examples in point throughout the literature of all times and cultures, but I believe that the modern one presents a more grounded approach in an attempt to exemplify the power and impact of such a literary creation on generations of young people worldwide. And what better example could I think of if not J. D. Salinger™s novel The Catcher in the Rye ? This article tries to outline the most important themes and patterns in the novel and connect them to other relevant and similar ones.
