Hunting Hat Parallels

Occasionally, I like to throw in a classic read into the mix of nightstand books (making up for the lack of reading my high school english curricula - back in the day). This months classic...Catcher in the Rye, caught me off guard, and I ended up enjoying the story far more than I expected. I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it as much if I hadn't read "Confederacy of Dunces" 6 months ago. I couldn't help but draw various parallels between the two stories, especially between the two characters. I doubt I would ever find myself reading this story again, but a key point hammered in the developing of characters is embedded in my mind, and I have Catcher in the Rye to thank for it. Let's hope this will translate well into my next film.

Side reading note: Griffin, I very much enjoyed "The Road" by McCarthy. Thanks for the rec.
