Cliff

portrays how hard it is to overcome the adolescent stage in life. Holden Caulfield, the main character in the novel, can be seen progressively coming to terms with the fact that it is unavoidable to lose one’s innocence. The elementary school, the cliffs, and Phoebe, all demonstrate how the loss of innocence is inevitable. The elementary school is a symbol that the loss of innocence is inevitable because it shows that even in one of the most innocent places there is still corruption. Holden…

over the cliff-I mean they’re running and they don’t look where they’re going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them,” (173) therefore preventing them from falling off of the cliff. While his proposal would be preposterous, Salinger instead uses Holden’s interpretation of the poem to change the message of the poem from not spreading rumors and gossip to preventing a child from losing his/her innocence when they go over the cliff because of the child not seeing the edge of the cliff. He…

spent waiting by the dark cliffs, watching the last rays of dying golden light grasping at the tips of waves, the rustling grass, my clothes, my hair and my face as their source sunk beneath the sky.

The Lower Manlius is 410 MYA. These rocks only covered around 10% of the JBT cliff. The Lower Manlius Rocks were Gray with some scattered white.
