J. D. Salinger Celebration 2019

Although I think that autumn is the best time to read J. D. Salinger, when January comes around I always think of the man and his work.  He was born and he died in January, so maybe January should be declared J. D. Salinger month.

I put together some essays and thoughts on J. D. Salinger and his writing (and one of my original short stories, too.) So, click the links below and happy reading.
