I have to admit I bought Franny and Zooey at a used book sale but I've never been able to bring myself to read it. It's like John O'Hara. You read Appointment in Samarra and you think every O'Hara novel has to be great. Then you read Butterfield 8.

I don't understand the fascination with JD Salinger. Just let the guy fade away already.

What was wrong with Butterfield 8? If you said, Rage to Live, I'd understand. But Butterfield 8?
