Remembering Salinger Through His Words

As far as American literary figures goes, few loomed as large as J.D. Salinger, whose classic novel, The Catcher in the Rye, and reclusive lifestyle made him as much of a legend and household name as a writer can ever be. He passed away on Thursday afternoon at 91 in Cornish, New Hampshire, rounding out a week of literary deaths (including historian Howard Zinn). Fortunately for those who want to remember him, The New Yorker has made an archive of Salinger’s stories available to everyone, regardless of subscription or password status.
