    The opening chapter is a smart elf, and Xiao Nizi is also good. However, in the second half, the editing is confusing, the details are unnecessary, and the story lines of Whit and his wife are very sloppy. The first time director will not break up, resulting in a simmering pot, which is boring and ordinary. The director is also a feel-good USC Alumni, and the film exudes a similar air of...

    The part of Soul Torture why I wrote it is very impressive; when Salinger asked to go to Columbia University to study writing, his parents had very different reactions, and it was very vivid. I happened to read "How to Stop Women's Writing" recently, and the negative obstacles that Salinger encountered. It is highly similar to a similar situation encountered by the female writers mentioned in this...

    "Through the course of my fascinatingly dull life I've always found fiction so much more truthful than reality. And, yes, I'm aware of the irony."

    Movie review

    The movie "Rebell in the Rye", this literary and artistic film made me have an interest in the original work that I have never had before. I was told before that "The Catcher in the Rye" is not suitable for you to read. The book says too much. "Chaos", swear words are endless. Because of the tight...

Rebel in the Rye quotes

  • Whit Burnett: I got an eye. I can spot talent coming a mile away. Saroyan, Cheever, Caldwell, I discovered them all. Of course, it would be nice if somebody discovered me.

    Jerry Salinger: Hey, come on, you've been published.

    Whit Burnett: I not only discovered them, I shaped them, I challenged them.

    [Pointing at his flat]

    Whit Burnett: This is me.

    [On the stairs]

    Whit Burnett: You should continue to write about Holden, but not as a short story.

    Jerry Salinger: Well, hang on, wait, wait, wait, wait. What do you mean?

    Whit Burnett: I think Holden Caulfield is a novel.

    Jerry Salinger: No, no, I couldn't write a whole novel. I'm a dash man, not a miler.

    Whit Burnett: You only say that because you're lazy. Holden Caulfield deserves an entire book all on his own.

    Jerry Salinger: A novel's a lot of words.

    Whit Burnett: It's just more words. Imagine the book that you would want to read and then go write it.

  • Jerry Salinger: Anyway, how's everything at the home front with you? You are good with Martha chewing your ear?

    Whit Burnett: Everything at my home is fine...

    Jerry Salinger: Yeah?

    Whit Burnett: Because what you'll learn about having wife is that occasionally she just needs to yell to feel better.

    [Jerry laughing]

    Whit Burnett: Oh, and by the way, I'm awfully sorry about the New Yorker.

    Jerry Salinger: How'd you know about that?

    Whit Burnett: Oh please. They canned the Caulfield story because you wouldn't take any of their notes. You know, you cannot be a pain in the ass until you're a success.
