.
In the United States in the 1950s, a boy named Holden fled the campus. Because he can't stand the "fake model" teacher, and can't stand the "fake model" classmate.
Holden wandered alone in the city, only to find that the urban society was even more pitch-black.
Holden hates profit calculations and human indifference. Holden even hated the calculations hidden under the veil of warmth, and the indifference disguised with warmth.
What Holden hates most is this "fake model".
Holden meets with his old friend, the girl Sally Hayes.
Why choose Sally? Because Sally "knows a lot about drama and literature." Since Holden feels the world is dirty, let's fly into the world of art.
Holden made a call and agreed with Sally to go to the theater.
Even if the call was made in the morning and the play would start at two in the afternoon, Holden still felt it was worth it.
2. While
waiting, Holden decided to start a "long walk."
Walking is not about going around aimlessly, but to find what Holden really cares about.
What does Holden care about?
He cared about the ducks near the shallow lake at the south end of Central Park. The lake was freezing hard, where did the ducks go.
He cares, are the Indian sculptures still in the museum he used to go to when he was young?
Holden took a walk to the park, and from the park to the museum.
Holden turned out to be Jia Baoyu who lives in the United States.
Jia Baoyu in "A Dream of Red Mansions" also "talked to the swallow when he saw the swallow, and talked to the fish when he saw the fish in the river. When he saw the stars and the moon, he either sighed or mumbled."
In their minds, each flower, one grass, one person, one thing, one thing, one scene, all deserve to be treated sincerely.
In Holden's heart, truth is the first among the three of truth, goodness and beauty. Without truth, goodness becomes hypocrisy, and beauty becomes false beauty.
3.
Holden meets Sally, Holden is extremely disappointed.
When the actors in the theater want to perform, they are naturally "fake models". The audience in the theater is "hypocrites gather together and talk about the play loudly, so that others can hear their voices and know how amazing they are".
Naturally, his conversation with Sally couldn't avoid praise of the actors and talk about the boring trivia on campus.
Holden is really tired of this!
Holden suddenly asked Sally, "Have you ever felt so bored? I mean, did you ever feel that everything would get worse, unless you figure out some way to remedy it?"
Holden said. "I hate living in this place in New York. The taxis, the buses on Madison Avenue, those drivers are always shouting at you, asking you to hit the back door to get out of the car; and being introduced to some fake guys, What do you say about which couple is a goddess; and when you go out, you can go up and down in the elevator; you have to go to Brooks all day long and ask you to measure your pants; and people always—"
Holden said Sally Terrified.
A fish can never understand the broad sky in the eyes of a bird.
Holden was extremely disappointed, not only for Sally, but also for those people who talked about art but didn't really love art.
4.
Holden walked through the society and returned home.
At home, he will be listened to by his heart. There are parents who love him unconditionally, sister Fei, who plays with her unconditionally, and Mr. Andorini, who talks with him unconditionally.
Andorini listened to Holden telling what happened to him at school, his complaints about the school. Why not listen anymore? Even if Andorini had known Holden's heart a long time ago.
Andorini knows that Holden hates this "fake" world. But how can one change the whole world on his own?
Andorini said, "A certain type of people, at this time or at that time in their lives, want to find something that their own environment cannot provide. ... If they fall in the future, it is not for fun. ——Those who fall can't feel or hear themselves on the ground. They just fall down."
When a person confronts the world, he can only smash his head and smash his blood.
Andorini said, "The sign of an immature man is that he is willing to die heroically for a certain cause, and the sign of a mature man is that he is willing to live humblely for a certain cause."
Only by reconciling with the world can he walk in the world. Among.
5.
Holden said, "I always imagine that there is a group of children playing games in a large wheat field. As for me, I stand on the edge of the cliff. My duty is to watch there. If any child goes to I ran over the cliff, and I caught him. I did this all day long. I just want to be the watcher in the wheat field. "
This world can also be a large wheat field, and people in the world are like this wheat field. Child. We may think that they are naive, they are "fake models". But we can still choose not to escape from this world, watch as a watcher, and maintain as a watcher.
The watchman in the wheat field is watching the crowd outside and guarding his heart.
Just like the poem written by Robert Burns mentioned by Holden:
This is not a home,
but you are the shadow of growing roots. The
habit of raising yourself in a golden dream
I will practice landing in your world,
not talking about money, rights, and sex
. clean windows with a
refraction of light low-flying
and we became phony in
two slipping through the net of the fish
can not dance can not sing can not be exposed
in this season
behind us for sitting on the edge of the
fantasy world to instill a little bit of alcohol
If you encounter in a cornfield To me
If I meet you in the wheat field,
if we see a lot of children
playing games in the wheat field,
please smile, please look at each other.
Attitudes are floating in the words of life.
We are all living in each other’s words.
