J. D. Salinger was born in 1919 and died in January 2010. He grew up in New York City and wrote short stories from an early age, but his breakthrough came in 1948 with the publication in the New Yorker of 'A Perfect Day for Bananafish'. The Catcher in the Rye was his first and only novel, published in 1951. It remains one of the most translated, taught and reprinted texts, and has sold over 65 million copies worldwide. He went on to write three further, critically acclaimed, best-selling works of fiction:Franny and Zooey, For Esmé - With Love And SqualorandRaise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters, and Seymour - An Introduction. Salinger continued to write throughout his life and left behind a large body of unpublished work.

Recenzii

His work meant a lot to me when I was a young person and his writing still sings.
It was a very pure voice he had. There was no one like him
He wasthe poet of youthful alienationbefore youth really knew what that was
