I don’t know what I am supposed to tell you here but all I
know is that I am supposed to tell you practically anything about something
because after reading some book it should affect you in a way that it makes you
feel you wanna say or write anything about something.
It’s not literally a book review you should be writing
because half the time making these things you will later find out that it isn’t
the book you are reviewing, it is your life- your freaking recent life.
Not telling you a bit of the book would be really quite
unfair for you might think I’m just making this up- reading some book. But no,
it’s this book entitled The Catcher in
the Rye with Holden in it, Holden Caulfield. He hates phonies- or the ones
you think who are fake, professional fakers in the zone.
You might take two categories of phonies. First, the kind of
phonies that think they are being real because they think they shouldn’t be
faking their identities because they think that is the very precise thing to do
especially when you are at the stage of building up some kind of projected
identity. But that’s the real problem with it, you project it that’s why it is
more prone to you faking it because you should project it in a way people might
probably accept it and worse, in a way people might adore it.
Second, the kind of phonies that are really making it as a
means for survival, they think that they can’t survive any psychological,
emotional, or sometimes spiritual kind of crisis without faking it. They are
the ones who can’t accept their real self and that’s why they try to be someone
else and later on they go on telling themselves “this is who I am”-a phony.
Either way, I really pity all those phonies. They’re all the
same, stuck in their own nightmares disguised as daydreams. But maybe, they
shouldn’t be pitied at all; rather, they should be given the right amount of
attention because all they need is just a bit or bravery, courage, and solace.
Because being who you really are, it’s like you are a dove getting close to a
bunch of ruthless snakes.
