Review about the catcher in the rye

J.D. Salinger's
The Catcher in the Rye
(excerpt)

"Boy, when you're dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you're dead?"

At a first sight and without reading anything else more than this excerpt Holden shows his idea of dying, I mean, he tell us in his reflections what he thinks about the dead body once you are dead. For me he can't care less about life, he can't be more indifferent to what is to live, and if people take flowers to the dead ones is not to just remember them because you can do that at home or when you go to the bathroom or when you write your english blog, though to "show" them they take a time of their life to remember him and to make a "ceremony" with flowers and to cry (at the beggining), I agree that dead people probably don't mind (not saying they think) if you give them flowers or not, they are allready dead, but is a love proof to remember in that way the ones that have allready gone. For example, my mother has always told me that once she dies she wants to be burned and us to throw her ashes in the top of a mountain or a hill, she doesnt want to be burried, she hates cementeries and flowers, churches (she doesnt believe in God by the way)... but for me, throwing something that is so important in my life, someone I've loved and I'll love for ever, is imposible emotionally imposible, I prefere to go against her and burry her before throwing her to the wind and dust, because I care about her and I'll like to visit her even though she's not more here.

     Probably this way of thinking in holden is a way to prove he haven't been a bad broder, because he has a dead brother, Allie, he remembers him, but he doesnt visits him, and as an excuse to his behaviour he convinces himself that get burried and bring flowers to the deads is wrong.J.D.
