Reading the thoughts and opinions of writers like John Updike, Dan Wakefield, Joan Didion, William Wiegand, and others was fascinating, and insightful. It makes me wonder what they might say today, 40-50 years later.
His Glass family stories are covered in depth and of course Catcher in the Rye, Franny and Zooey.
Introduced and edited by Henry Anatole Grunwald, "Salinger" is an interesting look at his work and a tiny bit of his life.
I received this book from Meredith at Harper Perennial for review. Thank You!
I'd like to read this, but I have to read Franny and Zooey and Nine Stories first. I love that list of fan writers.
