Catcher and the Rye

n the part of the Catcher in the Rye that I read was about a brother and a sister conversing about why the brother had left his school. Phoebe the younger sister of the narrator of the story is very upset at her brother for leaving and failing out of school. Her brother’s only excuse is that every one at that school was phony and fake. He failed all his classes, but English and he blamed it on the phony teachers. Phoebe worries about her brother because she is afraid of there father being very angry with him for leaving school. In attempt to challenge her brother decision on school she asks him what he does enjoy. All he can recount on is this incident in school in which a boy jumps out a window and kills him self. Phoebe then asks him what does he want to do with his life. He replies that he wants to catch children from falling off a cliff that is covered with Rye. Then Phoebe and her brother start to dance and right when they stop they hear their parents coming in. When there parents come Phoebe covers for her brother and he snicks out.
I though the story was interesting to fallow, but because this is only a very small section of the book I fell like not much of importance has happened. The character Phoebe I like a lot she reminds me of me when I was younger. Always forgiving of you siblings and loves to dance. Her brother seems like he well be an interesting character as the story progresses. The part of the story so far that has really caught my attention is the loss of communication the son has with his parents. The fact that his parents have no idea that he is home and that he had been failing his classes. I liked the idea of him being a catcher of the children in the rye. It sounds like a nice fantasy that I would enjoy myself. I’m interested to see how this story will progress.
