Catcher and Rye

In the excerpt from "The Catcher and Rye," J. D. Salinger's boisterous and energetic banter depicts the comedy in his young life. J.D. uses common words to describe his past, such as "crap" and "lousy". His writing shows that he will write whatever comes to mind, saying that his parents "would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything pretty personal about them," shows that he doesn't really care what he says, just wants to get his point across. He writes with common and blunt diction and doesn't have a wide use of words.
