Ready Reference Treatise: The Catcher in the Rye

“The Catcher in the Rye” by J. D. Salinger was first published in 1951. It is said to be one of the best novels written by Salinger.

The book was originally published only for adult readers, but over the years it began to be popular with adolescent readers because the themes of teenage angst and alienation appeal to young readers.

It is quite remarkable that the book is included in the course of study in most of the schools and colleges for the students of English literature.

The book has been translated into almost all the major languages of the world. Up to the present, more than 75 million copies of the book have been sold. The book has never gone out of publication since it was first published.
