Sixteen-year-old Holden Caulfield recounts the days following his expulsion from Pencey Prep. Instead of returning home immediately, he travels to New York City, where a series of encounters with friends, strangers, former acquaintances and family members exposes his deep dissatisfaction with the adult world. Cynical about what he sees as hypocrisy and phoniness around him, Holden struggles with loneliness, grief, identity and the difficult transition from childhood to adulthood.
