520    The hero-narrator of "The Catcher in the Rye" is an 
       ancient child of sixteen, a native New Yorker named Holden
       Caulfield. Through circumstances that tend to preclude 
       adult, secondhand description, he leaves his prep school 
       in Pennsylvania and goes underground in New York City for 
       three days. The boy himself is at once too simple and too 
       complex for us to make any final comment about him or his 
       story. Perhaps the safest thing we can say about Holden is
       that he was born in the world not just strongly attracted 
       to beauty but, almost, hopelessly impaled on it. There are
       many voices in this novel: children's voices, adult voices,
       underground voices -- but Holden's voice is the most 
       eloquent of all. Transcending his own vernacular, yet 
       remaining marvelously faithful to it, he issues a 
       perfectly articulated cry of mixed pain and pleasure. 
       However, like most lovers and clowns and poets of the 
       higher orders, he keeps most of the pain to, and for, 
       himself. The pleasure he gives away, or sets aside, with 
       all his heart. It is there for the reader who can handle 
       it to keep
