EXTRACTS WE ENJOYED THE MOST

representation

Extracts we didn't enjoy

-growing up is necessary but never alone


Moral or message

Doesn't that make you think of a movie?

Recommandation

No

  • not important events and twist
  • complicated to finish, to follow the story and to really get into it
  • a bit boring at some points

    Yes

    • for people who can identify with Holden
    • for teenagers who are scared to grow up
    • people who are questionning about their future

      In link with what we said:

      Three words

      COMPLEX

      RELATABLE

      DEEP

      -well-written

      -we don't identify ourselves to the characters
      - we don't relate to the themes of this novel
      -too much description

      Why?

      Our mark

      3/10

      Foreshadowing:

      Literary device

      "I could probably tell you what I did after I went home and how I got sick and all"


      At the beginning of the novel he also tells us that vaguely.

      -more than 60 million of copies


      - people like it for the complexity and richness of the personnality of Holden

      Successful:
