5.“If you really want to hear about it,the first thing you’ll probably want to know is where I was born,and what my lousy childhood was like,and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me,and all that David Copperfield kind of crap,but I don’t feel like going into it,if you want to know the truth.”-The Catcher In The Rye by J. D. Salinger
About the author:Salinger became a recluse as soon as fame touched his feet. His controversial and universally acclaimed novel depicting adolescent alienation and loss of innocence made him a star overnight.Salinger died in 2010 and has instructed in his will that a few of his stories (one of them is speculated to be a prequel of The Catcher in the Rye)are to be published 50 years after his death.
