【Celebrity reviews and recommendations】
Hemingway:
He's fucking talented!
Zheng Yuanjie:
Not awarding Salinger the Nobel Prize in Literature is not a regret for Salinger, but a regret for the Nobel Prize in Literature committee.
Haruki Murakami:
As I translated Salinger's book, I secretly marveled at how well it could be written. Although I am also a novelist, I can never reach this level, so I can only admire him.
John Updike:
Salinger's brilliant writing makes the character's personality and wisdom shine with unique brilliance.
Su Tong:
In college, Salinger was my biggest obsession. I read every work of his I could get my hands on. I can't explain my love for him.
Zhian:
It can be said that if there was no Salinger, there would be no Wang Shuo and no Wang Xiaobo.
Mai Jia:
The most tender part of my heart will always belong to Salinger, and I am willing to read every word of his...
【Content Introduction】
"—we always, always, always forget our disgusting, insignificant selves."
In "Nine Stories," Seymour, the eldest brother of the Glass family, suddenly passes away, leaving behind a tangle of mysteries and a small green-covered book. Years later, Franny, the beautiful and intelligent younger sister, attends a prestigious school and joins the drama club, but she feels out of place and cynical, like a "female Holden." Faced with her boastful boyfriend, she tries to play the role of a docile woman out of "ancient and stubborn psychological patterns," but she feels deeply uncomfortable. She seeks peace in the little book left behind by Seymour, but only sinks deeper into confusion. When she is on the verge of a mental breakdown, her younger brother Zooey's sharp and witty words pull her out of her shell...
This is a story about love and the expression of love.
