From the legendarily reclusive 20th century master of American literature comes an extraordinary collection of interviews.
J.D. Salinger (b. 1919, New York, NY; d. 2010, Cornish, NH) was one
of the most influential writers of the twentieth century. His
landmark novel The Catcher in the Rye is widely established as a
defining novel of post-World War II America. He is also the author
of the collections Nine Stories, Franny and Zooey, and Raise High
the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour- An Introduction. Though he
continued to write up until his death in 2010, Salinger was
fiercely reclusive and stopped publishing his work in 1965.
Editor David Streitfeld is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who
writes for The New York Times. He was the editor of Gabriel Garcia
Marquez- The Last Interview and Philip K. Dick- The Last Interview.
