Throughout the book Holden is still a jerk. He does change a bit but then goes mentally insane. I would recommend the book if you like adventure stories since this book is very adventurous through New York. I would say if you don't like characters that don't really change this book is not for you.

Il classico della letteratura americana ai lettori del giorno d'oggi potrebbe far storcere il naso, ma preso per quello che é rimane comunque un libro decisamente apprezzabile, scorrevole, a tratti parecchio ironico ma che riesce comunque a far riflettere su quelli che possono essere i conflitti o le incomprensioni tra un adolescente e un mondo che é nemico

This is one of my all time favorite books now. I really liked how the character spoke about things and it honestly felt like just speaking to a friend. I really loved the story because it was not overly dramatized and it also had elements of mental health in it which kinda brings things you can relate to.  I really enjoyed this book.
