What is J. D. Salinger?J D Salinger Jerome David Salinger is an American Author who has passed into legendary status due to his works, The Catcher In Over-enthusiastic literature student: "I'm gonna go meet my hero, J D Salinger!" J. D. Salinger - videoJ. D. Salinger - what is it?Probably the greatest writer in American history. 89 year old Salinger had many stories published in The New Yorker but has had only four books published; The Catcher in the Rye, Nine Stories, Franny and Zooey, and Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction. His last work published was Hapworth 16, 1924 in The New Yorker in 1965. His last interview was in 1980 and since then he has become sort of a recluse and lives a quite life in New Hampshire. Salinger almost always writes about young, very intelligent and cynical people and his work appeals greatly to a younger audience because of his theme of loss of innocence and adolescent alienation. I think for the past 40 years J. D. Salinger has been working on a huge masterpiece that will be published when he dies and blow us all away. |
