Chris Nicholson's Writing Weblog
December 30, 2008 Tuesday
Today's New York Times features a feature about writer/recluse J.D. Salinger, who is about to turn 90. The article doesn't offer any real new information (because none is ever available, such is the thoroughness of Salinger's self-exile from the literary world and society at large); but it's still a good read, and a nice tribute to one of America's best living writers — to one of its best writers, period.
See "Still Paging Mr. Salinger."
