Jerome David Salinger was one of the most prominent writers of the 20th century. His crowning achievement was The Catcher and The Rye. Along with this he also boasted A “Perfect Day for Bananafish”‚ For Esmé – with Love and Squalor‚ and the Glass family novellas‚ to name a few. Most of his works involved adolescent youths growing up and loss of innocence in harsh times. This is probably to his rough early years‚ his involvement in WWII‚ and the myriad of his relationship and religious changes.
