The Great Dealership Monologue

Chapter 7 is a strange example for me; it's a narrative of a used car dealership owner, mostly with him scamming people out of their money (selling "jalopies", or old, broken-down cars, for prices far higher than they're worth). I rather enjoyed it, which was unexpected for me, considering my disdain for Catcher in the Rye, a book that was nothing but a narrative; I assumed that I just disliked narratives, but it appears it was just Salinger's narratives.
