Guest 277: 930-933 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I've only ever read Catcher in the Rye, any advice on what to read next?

No, I think he intended for things to be published after his death: Quote In her memoir, Margaret Salinger describes the detailed filing system her father had for his unpublished manuscripts: "A red mark meant, if I die before I finish my work, publish this 'as is,' blue meant publish but edit first, and so on."
