Ah , Catcher in the rye .... Tight prose and thought . Love it . Love the scene with the little sister on the roundabout .

Have you read the book by his daughter , Margaret Salinger ? Dream Catcher } a memoir .

' My childhood was a world that dangled between dream and nightmare on a gossamer thread my parents wove without the reality of solid ground to catch a body should he or she fall' .

I never mix the personal qualities of the author with the masterpiece , but there is nothing wrong with being interested in Salinger as a person .
