Personal Fact of J. D. Salinger | |
J.D. Salinger was an American writer who became famous for his novel, ‘The Catcher in the Rye’. Having started writing short stories in high school, this author struggled early in his career, to get his works recognized and published. Some of his writings were published by his teacher Whit Burnett, in the magazine ‘Story’. However, the aspiring writer’s aim was to get them printed in ‘The New Yorker’ magazine. The magazine received many submissions from the writer, but rejected most of them, except for ‘Slight Rebellion off Madison’, ‘A Perfect Day for Bananafish’, and ‘Hapworth 16, 1924’. After ‘The Catcher in the Rye’ was published, this author shot to fame, and produced other extremely popular books like ‘Franny and Zooey’, ‘Nine Stories’, and ‘Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction’. His most famous creation is that of the ‘Glass’ family which appears in almost all his stories. He is also known for having introduced the character of Holden Caulfield, who acts as the epitome of the chaos going on in any teenager’s life. Once the author got a taste of fame, he chose to stay away from public life. He became a recluse, thus giving rise to a lot of speculations about his private life. |
