Kuristik rukkis Kokkuvõte Kuristik rukkis toimub 1950ndatel ja on jutustatud ühe noormehe Holden Caulfieldi poolt. Holden ei täpsusta oma asukohta, kuid ta teeb asja väga selgeks, et ta on vaimuhaiglas või sanatooriumis ning saab ravi. Juhtumid, mida ta jutustab võtavad aset pärast viimast koolipäeva sügisel ning kestab kuni jõuludeni, mil Holden on 16-aastane. Holdeni lugu saab alguse laupäeval, mil kõik tunnid on lõppenud Pencey koolis, Agerstown, Pennsylvanias. Pencey on Holdeni neljas koos: ta on läbikukkunud teistes kolmes koolis. Penceyys, ta kukkus läbi viiest ainest neli ja sai teate, et teda on välja visatud koolist, kuid tema lahkumine Manhattanile on planeeritud alles kolmapäeval. Ta külastab oma ajaloo õpetajat, kes on vana, Spencerit, et öelda viimased sõnad, kuid kui Spencer hakkab teda noomitama halva õppeedukuse pärast, saab Holdenil villand.
