I admire how well Salinger captured colloquial speech on the page, although it’s more the colloquial speech of television (or radio, as Salinger calls it) than of real life. I didn’t enjoy the parts where it seems like a manifesto (presumably the author’s) is being spouted by characters in the story – isn’t that propaganda instead of literature? I think Franny is pregnant.
