JD Salinger RIP

JD Salinger, the author of the Catcher in the Rye, has died in his early 90s.

I came to the book late in life (30), and found it to be too teenage for my tastes, but those who loved him read his book religiously (I can remember a gal who had read it over 30 times).

No matter what you might have thought of the book, modern literature lost a giant yesterday.
