Adios, J.D.

J.D. Salinger died yesterday.

Seeing as how he was a recluse, I expected the story to be that he actually died 6 months ago, but they only got into the house and found his remains yesterday. But, no, apparently he did actually die yesterday.

Great books. I love them all.

I like the way these people are described as reclusive when the only reason seems to be that they haven't given an interview for a number of years - yet they still lead probably a relatively normal life.....
Had to read Catcher in the Rye at school and although its a long time ago now, I don't recall it with any fondness.
