J.D. Salinger RIP


"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." -opening lines of The Catcher In The Rye
Author and famous recluse J.D. Salinger has passed away at the age of 91.
