One of my favorite lines in "The Catcher in the Rye". JD Salinger died on Wednesday, January 27. He was 91.
Holden was my first literary love. Thirteen years ago, I was this lanky, intrepid teenager - short of becoming a man who was hoping to make his mark in the world and without a clue as to what to do. I fell in love with the lanky teenager who loved his little sister to bits and pieces and smoked shitloads of cigarettes and philosophized blue streak while trying to find yet another cigarette to put in his mouth.
Thank you for giving me Holden, Mr. JD Salinger. You will forever be remembered.
yes he will always be remembered
