J. D. Salinger Boeken

The hero-narrator is a sixteen-year-old native New Yorker named Holden Caulfield. After leaving his prep school in Pennsylvania, he spends three days navigating New York City. Holden is both simple and complex, making it difficult to draw definitive conclusions about him or his experiences. He is deeply drawn to beauty, almost to the point of being trapped by it. The novel features various voices—children's, adults', and underground—but Holden's voice stands out as the most powerful. His expression transcends his own vernacular while remaining true to it, delivering a poignant mix of pain and pleasure. Like many artistic souls, he internalizes much of his pain, choosing to share his joy with others. This emotional complexity is available for readers who can appreciate it. J.D. Salinger's classic tale of teenage angst and rebellion was first published in 1951 and has been recognized as one of the best English-language novels of the 20th century. It has faced challenges for its candid language and themes of sexuality, becoming a must-read for many teenage boys in the 1950s and 60s.

Buddy Glass introduces his older brother and describes the events of Seymour's wedding day

A haunting and deeply personal portrait of family tragedy from the much-loved author of The Catcher in the Rye Buddy Glass is the second-eldest son in the eccentric and enchanting Glass family. He is on leave from the army during World War II, attending the wedding of his eldest brother, Seymour. But the wedding is not a happy one: it is overcast by a sense of strange suspense. Perhaps everyone is aware, on some level, of what is to come. And in the years after the tragedy, Buddy is haunted by memories of Seymour, turning over in his mind everything that came to pass with his deeply complex and unhappy older brother. With painful tenderness and great subtlety, Salinger unfolds a story of family tragedy from the point of view of a character - Buddy - who has long been suspected to be a portrait of the author himself.

"First published in the New Yorker in the 1950s, Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: an Introduction are two novellas narrated by Buddy Glass, a character often said to be a portrait of Salinger himself. In the first, Buddy has taken leave from the army during World War II to attend the wedding of the eldest Glass brother, Seymour, and an atmosphere of portentous suspense sets the scene for the tragedy that will follow. In the second, Buddy reminisces about Seymour and the novella unfolds into a deep and far-reaching exploration of a complex and sad character which displays all the tenderness and subtlety which distinguish the best of Salinger's writing"--Publisher's website

J.D. Salinger, author of the classic Catcher in the Rye (1951), wrote the stories Franny and Zooey for publication in the New Yorker magazine in 1955 and 1957 respectively. Both stories were part of a series centred around a family of settlers in New York, the Glasses, particularly the children of Les and Bessie Glass, a Jewish-Irish theatrical act. All are brilliant former radio actors. Their eldest child, Seymour, a genius, commits suicide in his thirties. The repercussions to the family of this act provide the unifying theme to the stories. In Franny and Zooey the youngest member of the family, Franny, has a religious and nervous breakdown. She attempts to ward off the meaninglessness of college life by the obsessive repetition of a Jesus prayer. Her brother Zachary (Zooey) rests at nothing in his attempts to restore her sanity. J.D. Salinger wrote the Glass stories, 'It is a long-term project, patently an ambitious one, and there is a real-enough danger, I suppose, that sooner or later I'll bog down, perhaps disappear entirely, in ly own methods, locutions and mannerisms. On the whole, though, I'm very hopeful.I love working on these Glass stories, I've been waiting for them most of my life, and I think I have fairly decent, monomaniacal plans to finish them with due care and all-available skill.'

A guide to reading "Catcher in the Rye" with a critical and appreciative mind. Includes background on the author's life and times, sample tests, term paper suggestions, and a reading list.

A 16-year old American boy relates in his own words the experiences he goes through at school and after, and reveals with unusual candour the workings of his own mind. What does a boy in his teens think and feel about his teachers, parents, friends and acquaintances?

The Catcher in the Rye is J . D. Salinger's world-famous novel of disaffected youth. Holden Caulfield is a seventeen- year-old dropout who has just been kicked out of his fourth school. Navigating his way through the challenges of growing up, Holden dissects the 'phony' aspects of society, and the 'phonies' themselves: the headmaster whose affability depends on the wealth of the parents, his roommate who scores with girls using sickly-sweet affection.Written with the clarity of a boy leaving childhood behind, The Catcher in the Rye explores the world with disarming frankness and a warm, affecting charisma which has made this novel a universally loved classic of twentieth-century literature.J. D. Salinger was born in 1919 and died in January 2010. He grew up in New York City, and wrote short stories from an early age, but his breakthrough came in 1948 with the publication in The New Yorker of 'A Perfect Day for Bananafish'. The Catcher in the Rye was his first and only novel, published in 1951. It remains one of the most translated, taught and reprinted texts, and has sold some 65 million copies. His other works include the novellas Franny and Zooey, For Esme with Love and Squalor, and Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters, published with Seymour - An Introduction.

A young and ambitious writer named Jerome David Salinger aimed high early in his career, yearning to publish in The New Yorker, which he viewed as the pinnacle of American literature. However, it took several years and the duration of a world war before he achieved this goal. The New Yorker, known for its selective tastes, was not ready for Salinger's brash style and cynical worldview. Instead, other magazines recognized his talent during a tumultuous time. Story magazine was the first to publish Salinger’s work, featuring “The Young Folks” in 1940. This story offers a glimpse into New York’s cocktail society, showcasing a conversation between two young people that is largely meaningless. His next story, “Go See Eddie,” appeared in The University of Kansas City Review, depicting a tense encounter where a male character pressures a young woman to meet Eddie, notable for its omitted backstory—a technique reminiscent of Hemingway. Later, as Salinger neared the end of his wartime experience, “Once A Week Won’t Kill You” was published in Story magazine. This story, about a soldier informing his aunt of his deployment, can be interpreted as a metaphor for preparing loved ones for potential loss. Devault-Graves Digital Editions proudly presents this anthology by one of America’s most innovative authors.

This book collects the rare, revealing, and essential public records of the elusive giant, and the little-known conversations in between. It offers insights into Salinger's early days as a writer, his attempts to kill a book of pirated stories, and the late "comeback" that he may or may not have even wanted

Am 22. Juli dieses Jahres veröffentlichte ein kleiner Verlag aus Memphis den Erzählungsband „Die jungen Leute“ von J. D. Salinger, die erste Publikation des amerikanischen Kultautors seit fünfzig Jahren. Diese ersten Erzählungen eines der größten und unergründlichsten Schriftsteller unserer Zeit sind ein seltenes literarisches Ereignis. Am 22. Juli 2014 brachte ein kleiner Verlag aus Memphis 'Die jungen Leute' heraus, die erste Veröffentlichung des amerikanischen Kultautors J. D. Salinger seit fünfzig Jahren. Es sind seine ersten Erzählungen, und sie lassen bei aller Knappheit ungewöhnliches schriftstellerisches Talent und feines psychologisches Gespür erkennen: Salinger erzählt darin mit wenigen Worten und doch mit vielen Zwischentönen von Sehnsüchten und Eitelkeiten, Schwäche und Ohnmacht in sehr ungleichen Beziehungen, sei es zwischen jungen Eheleuten, Geschwistern oder zwei Partygängern, die unverhohlen auf Partnersuche sind. Eine literarische Entdeckung, die einen neuen Blick auf das schmale Werk des großen Autors ermöglicht.

A korán elhallgatott, titokzatos Salinger csekély terjedelmű, de a hatvanas évek irodalmára és közönségére oly nagy hatást tevő életműve ma is eleven: ezt bizonyítják az új kiadások is, melyek sorában közvetlen előzménye, a Franny és Zooey után most a mindmáig utolsó két nagy elbeszélés, a Magasabbra a tetőt, ácsok és a Seymour: Bemutatás jelenik meg. Az első részben a hét Glass gyerek közül a második, Buddy, a sokféle művészi tehetséget felmutató család egyetlen író tagja a legidősebb testvér, a tragikusan rövid életű Seymour esküvőjének szomorúan groteszk történetét beszéli el. A második elbeszélés már egészében próbálja megidézni az élet prózájához túlságosan érzékeny, túlságosan költő Seymour alakját, és egyben Buddy – az író – küzdelmét mutatja be a reménytelennek tetsző feladattal, bonyolult és gazdag hangszerelésben.

Novela autora proslulého zejména jedním z nejvýznamnějších děl americké literatury XX. století – generačním románem Kdo chytá v žitě – vypovídá o touze po nalezení smyslu života. Podle autora je „amatérským filmem“ citlivě zobrazujícím něžné vztahy matky a dvou nejmladších dětí rodiny Glassových; skutečně jde o vynikající rozbor rodinných vztahů. Dvacetiletá studentka anglistiky Franny si z pokoje mrtvého bratra vypůjčí knihu Poutníkova cesta vyprávějící o ruském venkovanovi, který se naučil zvláštní metodu neustálého modlení. Poté upadá do deprese, prodělá nervové zhroucení a její blízcí se jí snaží pomoci. Obsahem knihy jsou v podstatě tři velké rozhovory – mezi Franny a jejím chlapcem Lanem, mezi jejím bratrem Zooeym a matkou Bessie a konečně mezi Franny a Zooeym. Zooey, úspěšný herec, se jí snaží pomoci svými úvahami o víře v Boha a smyslu poctivé práce, zatímco maminka se snaží posílit Frannino tělo vydatnou slepičí polévkou. Nevšední knížka, která chytne u srdce.
