Coming Through The Rye
Coming Through the Rye is the story of Jamie Schwartz, a sometimes hapless 16 yr old who wants desperately to be a worldly adolescent. Unhappy at his all-boys boarding school, his life raft is the belief that he will someday play Holden Caulfield, the complex and alienated main character from The Catcher in the Rye,on Broadway and in the movies.
Jamie adapts the novel as a play and runs away with a local girl to the mountains of New Hampshire to find the book's notoriously reclusive author, JD Salinger. Their odyssey and the events that follow are a journey into unchartered territory of friendship, sexual awakening, love and loss.
