Continue Salinger's experience in World War II7. The Hang of It (Collier's, 1941) This story centers around the father's realization that his son Harry may be next to disgrace the family in the military, following in the footsteps of Bobby, a weak soldier who has always insisted that he eventually get the hang of him. This two-page story is an easy, quick reading, though it offers an interesting look at Salinger's own experiences with the military.8 The personal notes of the infantryman (Collier's, 1942) are somewhat similar to hang it in that it is a brief story about someone trying to recruit. The main difference? The man trying to recruit this elderly man, unfit for the military because of his age, not any missed potential, as with Bobby and Harry. There is a beautiful note of melancholy throughout, in terms of men and women about what happens when it comes to soldiers shipping off.9. The Girl I Knew (Good Housekeeping, 1948) Set just before World War II in Vienna, the narrator meets a girl named Leah and tells readers: Probably for every person there is at least one city that sooner or later turns into a girl. ... She was there and she was all over town and that's it. This story may well align with Salinger's real life, given that he worked as a counterintelligence figure in Vienna, and it gives readers an idea of the trauma and heartache that the Holocaust gave Salinger.

This is the next faith, instilled primarily by my mother, an exceptionally intelligent woman who has never suffered fools with pleasure but softening grace to be one of the warmest, most generous women you could ever hope to meet, and with one of the greatest voices you can imagine (Buttercup) Here's the main thing she's taught me: each of us has an uncoated responsibility to accept the talent we've ever received on this earth. , and develop it as far and just as life allows. It is so deeply ingrained in my beliefs that I can largely trace every important decision I have made in my life back to it. What does this have to do with the price of eggs? Well, that's the reason Jerome David Salinger makes me as crazy as everyone who comes out. Because I can certainly understand why, given the perfection of the stories in this collection, any writer might not want to risk spoiling their reputation by following with a work that can't reach the same level. Hell, nothing could reach the perfection of the stories, for Esme - with love and squalor, Laughing Man, Down the Boat, or Shortly Before the War with the Eskimos. And while I'm not really a big fan of Seymour Glass, the perfect day for Bananafish is pretty damn awesome as well. So, yes, J.D. -- after these stories, it's hard to imagine anything better. Even everything is comparable. But that's still no excuse not to try, arrogant selfish bastard. You've had a monumental, unimaginable talent. And for you to squat in your bloody bunker in New England, relying on your admittedly golden fucking laurels, it's an act of unscrupulous, unforgivable, selfishness. I could almost convince myself that your genius crossing into madness was an explanation for your lack of products, but you seem cunningly able to sic your lawyers at someone who is perceived to encroach on your damn privacy. So while I can understand the impulse of not wanting to risk my reputation, I'm sure as hell can't forgive it. You got an incredible gift. You have to use it. And, sorry, folks, it's far beyond me to find exactly where the genius lies in the specific stories mentioned. You really just need to read them for yourself. ... More It's so good from a collection of short stories that one would hope to find. Salinger was a heck of a writer, certainly well known for his classics, Catcher in the Rye, but there's a lot more out there like this little gem, for example. I am it's 5 stars for the strength of two stories alone, but they were all good. The two stories I mention are the perfect day for Bananafish, and for With love and squalor. Both have themes involving troubled soldiers returning from World War II. Salinger is just as good from a collection of short stories that one would hope to find. Salinger was a heck of a writer, certainly well known for his classics, Catcher in the Rye, but there's a lot more out there like this little gem, for example. I give it 5 stars to the strength of the two stories alone, but they were all good. The two stories I mention are the perfect day for Bananafish, and for Esme - with love and squalor. Both have themes involving troubled soldiers returning from World War II. Salinger's experience in the war certainly influenced his writing, and may have been partly responsible for his reclusiveness during the last 45 years of his life. Update: September 2017 is the release of the film Rebel in The Rye, which is based on the autobiography of J.D. Salinger: A Life of Kenneth Slavensky. I'm looking forward to reading the book and watching the movie to learn more about this interesting person.... More if the kidnappers grabbed J D Salinger some time in the early 1970s, drove like madmen for the night and the next day too and put him in a small but pleasant room somewhere near Boise, furnished him with all the mod cons, and told him he wasn't going anywhere anytime soon until he finished at least nine more stories and at best three or four full novels; and if the kidnappers -- because of a cute cocktail of naivety and compassion (because you know, they were just lit up if the kidnappers grabbed J D Salinger some time in the early 1970s, driven like crazy for the night and the next day too and imprisoned him in a small but pleasant room somewhere near Boise, provided him with all the mods and told him that he wasn't going anywhere anytime soon until he finished at least nine more stories, and at best three or four full novels; and if the kidnappers -- because of a cute cocktail of naivety and compassion (because you know they were just fans of literature like you and me, not empty-eyed killers, and they weren't entirely convinced of this whole capers to start with let it be said) let JD go on long walks (to get inspired, but actually beat the next door of the farm and call the cops); and if they were then rounded (not too hard, police said) and put on trial - no jury in the country would have convicted them. When the prosecution rested and the defense opened, their lawyer would simply give a copy of Nine Stories to all 12 jurors and say, Ladies and gentlemen, I am resting my case. This is not to say that each of the Nines is such a great golden glowing nugget of controlled power, insight and wisdom (some of them), but that overall is so eloquent shrewdness, intelligence and all-around humanbeingness JDS that reading this collection is very bitter -- how wonderful it all is, it is, how very little of it is, when duller, pudgier fingers writers type, and on, and publish, and publish. Anyone who has come across comments myself on Ye Olde Catcher in Ye Rye now accuse me of inconsistency, or at least expect me to blame JDS for the same. How can I hate a novel for its unbearable whine and Johnny-one-notes-someone-shut-up-his-up-please-tiring and at the same time enjoying all the other JDS like me? They're cut from the same fabric, it's not like the blue period of Picasso and Picasso Cubist, who could be different guys, or the first and third Velvet Underground albums that could have been another band. But I've come across this in different areas of the universe - can't stand Tom Waits until Swordfishtrombones, think he's a genius for three albums, then can't stand it again. Shakespeare's tragedies - oui! Shakespeare's Comedy - ER, No! So maybe it's not that unusual. JDS famously published all its stuff between 1951 and 1963 and then STOPPED. (That's why the kidnappers pounced, they gave him a good ten-year rest, and that was ENOUGH their way of thinking.) And it stopped just as things were getting really interesting. He writes about the murderous conformity of American-educated middle-class living and rogue and especially young children who either undermine this button-down world or bail out quickly. Just as he stopped publishing things began to change. The 60s began to sway, and the youth squirt (as it was called) was upon us. Just very things you might think would fascinate JD. What do kids do when they try to make up their own rules? I feel the absence of JDS throughout the 60s and 70s as I feel the absence of another American writer who STOPPED in 1963, Sylvia Plath. I want to know what these two smart clogs would have made of the tumultuous ten years that followed the self- affirmation of their voices. But back to Nine Stories - and steal the catchphrase of fellow reviewers: Is it a classic? Answer: Yes. Goddamn!PS : I understand I also speculated on the viability of the kidnapping of Thomas Bernhard elsewhere, but it was to save the world from any further novels like extinction, while kidnapping J.D. Salinger for the opposite reason. But I would like to publicly assure that I do not condone the imprisonment of any writers for any reason, so please do not try to do so at home. ... more Each of his phrases was more like a small ancient island, flooded by a miniature sea of whiskey. Oh, Mr. Salinger, why don't you publish more of these amazing stories in your lifetime??? Nine stories - a collection of brilliant stories by J.D. Salinger.

Oh, Mr. Salinger, why don't you publish more of these amazing stories in your lifetime??? Nine stories - a collection of brilliant stories by J.D. Salinger. It is in this collection that the Glass family, the main components of Franny and Sui, is represented for the first time. In the next eight stories, we meet and learn characters with an assortment of mental and physical ailments and self-discovery. This is my second trip with Salinger after Franny and zue. My favorites here are Esme - with love and squalor, Laughing Man, De Daumier-Smith Blue Period, and Teddy. A common thread through all nine stories is a mood of despair, frustration, and higgledy-piggledy identity. The characters are very real; these are real people with real problems starting to buy into their daily lives. These stories haunt me. I found For Esme - With Love and Squalor the story of the effects of war on man stayed with me for days. It's so simple written, and yet, packs so much emotion and observation of the state of war and the mental and physical drain it can take on one person. From one line of note on the face, to the shaky hand, subtle differences from the first half of the story to the second half create a general awful vision. What is the blue period of De Daumier-Smith - loneliness, isolation, distortion, reinvention, escape, connection? Who is Jean De Domier-Smith - we never know, as this name the narrator calls himself. The fact that we never know the real name Jean is important; it serves to emphasize the idea of distortion and rethinking. Jin doesn't seem to be comfortable with who he is and by changing his name salinger allows Jin to reinvent himself. The trigger for Gene, who wants to reinvent himself, stems from the loneliness and isolation he feels, perhaps because of the death of his mother. By inventing himself, Jin can escape the painful realities of the world around him. We, all of us, can relate. This collection of short stories should be read over and over again. When I'm next reading these stories I discover something new about one of the characters or catch a new hint or reference. What ideas will I pick up about the Glass family? I could go on forever about the themes here. I could write pages about these people. I wonder where the esme is now. What's going to happen to Teddy? Does the chief find love and he's actually a laughing man? This is what is left unspoken here, which is really scheming. Words may go unspeakable, but still hopefully ...... more if I were more put together, I'd have nine tiny one sentence reviews for that and talk about every story, but I don't, and since it's a miracle that I have any notes on it at all and I'm writing this less than three months after reading. I always know if I really like a book that has a very high quality if it makes me miss time in literature classes. This one, for example, made me desperately sorry that I was in one so I could discuss Pretty Mouth and Green Eyes for at least one million If I were over put together, I would have nine tiny one sentence reviews for this and talk about each story, but I don't, and since it's a miracle that I have any notes on it at all, and write it less than three months after reading.

This one, for example, made me desperately sorry that I was in one so I could discuss Pretty Mouth and Green Eyes for at least one million years. But, alas, I'm a genius and therefore no longer in college. Plus I don't think I would ever read this in any classroom anyway. Some of these stories don't work for me, but I really liked some of them as stated above. Salinger writes so superbly and there are some really lovely characters here - Esme and Charles, Teddy, the Glass family. This is a very small book of very small stories that I loved. Bottom line: What I just said!------yard, I stated that I'm J.D. Salinger trash.this statement confirmed.review come /4 stars ... More Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger's there are nine deep, cryptic stories. It is always about the motives of child innocence, adult world and invaders of war in people's lives and isolation of the traumatized person. I was surprised that some stories fed up with me, although the literary quality may be no doubt. Salinger's dialogues are fabulous, the course of the stories is consistent. This is a portrait of an absolutely static society.3,5/5 Salinger's Nine Stories should be renamed How to Write Short Stories. While many keep Catcher in the rye as the zenith of his achievements to me it will always be this brooding and bold little book. I reread it two or three times a year. I love him so much. Frankly, of the nine stories collected here, I'd say that only a third of them are the best Salinger. The perfect day for Banafish, For Esme - with love and squalor, and Laughing Man are for me the peaks of short fiction. E Salinger's Nine Stories should be renamed How to Write Short Stories. While many keep Catcher in the rye as the zenith of his achievements to me it will always be this brooding and bold little book. I reread it two or three times a year. I love him so much. Frankly, of the nine stories collected here, I'd say that only a third of them are the best Salinger. The perfect day for Banafish, For Esme - with love and and Laughing Man are for me the peaks of short fiction. All that Salinger does is the best thing he does in these these Fairy tales. No one wrote to the kids better than him. They jump from the page on you right on your knees. Esme, her brother, Seymour's little friend and narrator Laughing Man are so bright and real you feel like running them all down the street for ice cream and cake. They are true to life. The same goes for Seymour in Banana Fish and narrator for Esme. No one got into the heads of brilliant but troubled young people better than Salinger. What we hear about Seymour, as opposed to what we see, creates a palpable (and beautiful) tension. The narrator of War For Esme has caused emotional problems drawn with such artistry to flood you as you read. Uncle Wiggly in Connecticut, the Blue Period Of Domier-Smith, and the War on the Eskimos for me fall into the devil entertainment, but not the big category. These stories are beautifully observed, funny, poignant and always a pleasure to read, but lacking that the magic of the first three should spare. Sure, that being said, even being good, but not the great Salinger makes them better than most. Finally Teddy, Down in the Boat and Pretty Mouth Green My Eyes are good stories, but I feel like they suffer from collecting in the same book as the others. Each alone is fascinating, but none of them patch on Esme, or Bananafish. Where other stories feel like full food, they are more like snacks. Tasty, but not quite filling. If you love Salinger and want to read something to them that doesn't make you want to shoot a president or a Sixties rock star this is my friend's book for you. ... more adverbs. It's all because of the adverbs that I read this collection. I asked my wonderful teacher about adverbs (use them and all of this), and the main point of his answer was: Read nine J.D. stories. Salinger. He's the master of the adverb. Oh, my God, he is. Almost 200 pages of the collection positively (see what I did there?) LITTERED with them. One beautifully (ha!) placed the adverb after the next. In one paragraph, I counted five. Five gorgeous adverbs in one, solitary paragre adverbs.

One beautifully (ha!) placed the adverb after the next. In one paragraph, I counted five. Five magnificent adverbs in one, single paragraph. And it works - how it works - great. (Take this, Stephen King.) Besides the adverbs, I found two of the most incredible stories I've ever read: The Perfect Day for Bananafish and for Esme - with love and squalor. Both of these stories left me with a catch in my throat, my pulse racing (and только из-за наречий), и принуждение, чтобы очистить страницы назад и вновь испытать власть и эмоции через хитро выбранные слова этого человека. Я попыталась объяснить Эсме моей матери и обнаружила, что задыхаюсь от слез. Интересно (я мог бы сделать это весь день), обе истории похожи, хотя один является разрушительным, а другой надежды. Оба связаны после Второй мировой войны солдат страдает от ПТСР. Оба связаны с абсолютной восхитительной невиновности ребенка. Оба имеют самый совершенный диалог. На самом деле, все девять историй имеют диалог. Однажды мне придется перечитать это, просто чтобы изучить диалог. Одна из историй почти 100% одна сторона телефонного звонка. Я имею в виду, этот парень был великолепен. Я просто хочу, чтобы он написал больше. Не все истории содержат потенцию двух я упомянул. Но каждая история заслуживает того, чтобы читать вдумчиво и пользовался в полной мере, методично, даже благоговейно. 5 звезд, для Эсме. ... более, I don't know if the translation had some insufficiency, but editing it made me a little nervous.

But to admit it, I haven't read many stories in a long time that have affected me so much, nailed me. It was one of those books that had been waiting to be read on the shelf for years, Nine Salinger's Stories. I'm afraid he was waiting. For a crazy guy like me, it always sounds like some stories, some atmosphere have the right time. For example, if I had read it 10 years ago, it was a book that could have intervened, so I feel like I've been very lucky with my book choices for a while.

For example, if I had read it 10 years ago, it was a book that could have intervened for me, so I'm really glad I read it right now. He had such a good look at every subject and scene that he could drown in detail, easily agitate that it's hard not to admire. The fact that a small moment of trivial ity placed in the story, winking in detail, turned around and became a solid building block that would serve as a magnificent end, gave me a complete satirist as a reader. At the end of every story, the slager gave me what I was looking for and made him run after you. It made me feel like I was living. Almost all nine stories have a childlike and adult perspective. Mutual dialogue is realistic and so striking that it is imprinted in memory. Wherever there are children, spontaneous purity and destruction, disorder, pollution that occurs spontaneously inevitably, where there is war back to back in history. This contrast keeps fiction low. This strengthens the backbone of the stories. And best of all, Salinger has created characters that won't be forgotten in almost all nine stories. I can't forget Esme, Seymour, Teddy, Eloise, De-Daunier Smith and Jeannie. 10/10 ...

I'm not talking about when you realized that reading was enjoyable, or a good distraction from your family, or a great way to spend a sunny day in the park. I'm talking about when you realized what it was: life could throw something at you, and, as long as you read, you could cope and move on. This, rather than just entertaining, your world can be expanded and fleshed out by what you pick up across the page that this great fuck-up man can best understand by placing himself in the head of strangers and seeing the world through their eyes for a while. I can chart the exact moment this thought struck me when I first finished reading Salinger's Nine stories, particularly the utterly heartbreaking Perfect Day for Bananafish. To this day, this book is still my favorite of his limited creativity and a sure contender for the Top 5 favorites of all time. While he is deservedly famous for Holden Caulfield's teenage angst, it is the subtle pathos of nine stories that marks him as an uns unparalleled author. The estranged Seymour Glass, whom I have always presented as a stand-in for Salinger himself, and his tragic inability to connect with anyone other than young children. About the prophetic Teddy, whose thinly veiled Buddhism came years before Beats began reading Suzuki. Esme, Charles and the injured Sergeant X are all three of whom I feel incessant tenderness. Idolized the leader and the mountain Mary Hudson. All these stories I can go back to again and again, myself changed over time, and find something new and useful to take out of them. Whether it's his absolutely perfect dialogue (I don't know any other author who so accurately captures the rhythm and cadence of speech), his impulse (need?) to include death in almost all of his stories, as if to remind us that even imaginary friends can get under the buses, his endless attempts to put into words a passive disconnection from the rest of humanity that we all, at one time or another, at one time or another Feel overwhelmed. There is more literary merit in this fine volume than the entire New York Times bestseller list. I've often nourished hang out in tiny New Hampshire villages and somehow attracting the eyes of reclusive author-carrying products across the street or some such black work. We would get a talk and he would suggest reading some of my meagre work and, Wonder Woman, offer a few words of advice. You know, Dreaming 101. Unfortunately, this will never happen. If there is a bright side to this tragic demise, then we hope that he has written feverishly over the past 60 years and his estate will begin posthumously publication. This is the only real kind of immortality available, and hopefully Salinger's words will be read for ages to come. ... no longer enjoy any of the stories and don't like getting to know the characters in any way. It seemed the theme of rich people alone in one way or another. It's been a long time since I read Nine Stories. This time I don't care about getting old. That wasn't the point. So I started rereading nine stories in my car at my work lunch break. Getting through the day needing things. I really needed an old friend. I was in a loss in a bad depth of desperation in a kinda way that I can't put in a meaningful way that would mean crap to anyone else. I remembered that Nine Stories were kind to me. I'm not in the mood for anything more than that. Friends.This has probably wo it's been a long time since I read nine stories. This time I don't care about getting old. That wasn't the point. So I started rereading nine stories in my car at my work lunch break. Getting through the day needing things. I really needed an old friend. I was in a loss in a bad depth of desperation in a kinda way that I can't put in a meaningful way that would mean crap to anyone else. I remembered that Nine Stories were kind to me. I'm not in the mood for anything more than that. Friends.This probably won't make any sense to people who don't struggle with stupidity. There's a sore cloud in my head that I get when I'm trying to understand math, or something like that that, that requires logical thought. I've never read the instructions either. I felt sick, cloudy feeling of disturbing stupidity for no mathematical reason. Just in general. It really sucks. So Salinger is my breath of fresh air from this feeling. I believe I don't want to read anything other than stories right now. And other feelings... (I have a feeling that I've mentioned it elsewhere on goodreads. well.) When I was a kid (four?) I read this comic book Peanuts. Charlie Brown struggled to explain his mixed feelings of being sad, happy, angry, all these emotions free range, all at one time. I quoted it for my family to try to explain how I felt. They laughed at their own. I slunk off the mood all by myself Yourself. It's not really about getting old. I'm still doing it. I've never found a better way than Charlie to explain it. All my moods are Peanut broods... Still. These feelings led to my I needed them. (You've already written an intro review, Mariel. I can have more than one! I remember four of the nine stories well, the rest are not. That's bullshit. This throws new light on the ethics of my memory and review of books I've been reading a long time ago. It's not a comfortable feeling. (Not that I'm still not going to do it.) I'll include my old thoughts if I remember any. Perfect day for Bananafish: Confession: I totally got into J.D. Salinger because of Robert Smith of The Cure. (According to YouTube, there is a band called Bananafishbones.) Bananafishbones - The CureI really remembered this story. Of course I did. Old thoughts Mariel: This girl Muriel sucks. (I'm interested in all the literary Mariels, Muriels, d other purchases on the subject. I don't remember my old thoughts well enough. Do I have more to do with Seymour? I think I treat it more now just because I remember that old me had a massive inferiority complex when it came to premature babies. Not that I like the company of three-year-old girls (I've spent enough time in the company of them associated with me). Nwo? She wasn't so beforehand. Seymour is constantly premature. My ex once told me that the kids were looking at me because they felt like I was one of them. I don't like him saying that. I know all too well the feeling of talking to people who react like Seymour and Buddy do with their young girl friends. That's what I get. It actually feels very lonely. It wasn't what was in my head when I was rereading in my car. What's so special about premature? The ability to surprise. It's not a lack of cunning, or knowing the rules. It's just not true. (The little girl reminded me of the mind game that older girls would play on a friend with her jealousy towards the younger girl he was friends with.) It's not a good concern that other people notice. I don't want to think that Seymour was offended when he thought the girl in the car was looking at his feet. I've said all this before about strangers. The great thing about kids is that they're all strangers. There's something about talking to strangers who don't know all the other topics heap on everything else to the point they can't listen to the point of what you feel. Maybe I really don't want to talk about suicide on goodreads. It was in my life. There's a part of my brain that splits: 1. A man who dies. It's none of my business. Why would anyone want to continue living if they can't continue living? 2. People are left behind. I almost was them. I don't want to be them. This is a substance that I wrote earlier about topics ... It's too much. This time... I could only feel Seymour's side. This is History. I didn't feel less alone reading this. I'm not sure I am I Except... I do not know. There's a time when leading someone else to look at banana fish isn't enough when raising yourself isn't enough. Potential for what, anyway? Ruh Ro, Reggie. If they take it all long it will be a long review... Uncle Wiggily in ConnecticutConfesia: I can't spell Connecticut without cheating. I didn't have any invisible friends. I made friends out of inanimate objects. I've never really stopped doing it. For myself I describe it as my Tom Hanks in Castaway with Wilson Volleyball Moments. I'll stop doing it when I don't feel that way. Castawayed.I loved when Jimmy is killed, and the little girl immediately replaces him with a new best friend. When a little kid, I crippled my paper Care Bear doll (cut off leg) and then couldn't stop crying about losing my leg (with vows never hurting him again). I feel close to Ramona. I'm sure she killed him for the tragedy of it all. (Or it really was the dog's fault.) I had a depressing feeling from it. Maybe I get this from other Salinger women, like their good end times when they pretend not to be young anymore? I loved it when my mom, Eloise, wanted to soothe her past from her college friend, Mary Jane. What is the fun of having a man's dinner party, anyway? Cocktails, dinner parties: the same difference. Shortly before the war with the Eskimos: No confessions. (I don't admit to writing a very bad story about the Eskimos.) I found it reassuring to have so many details as Selena coming back into the dress when she was wearing shorts. (Even if it didn't annoy Ginny, as it would normally be.) I'd be a couple. I hate waiting. I hate waiting so long. I hate it when people know what you think and run errands and stuff. It gives me a sick and frustrating feeling. Anyway.I hope Ginny will appreciate others noticing interesting details, and how they put them, in more people's worth than Selena, her brother or his friend. What a shame. The younger me is probably sad that she crushed on a guy who loved her (probably) prettier and more socially at ease sister. I probably also mentioned that Eric was talking like someone Holden would find annoying (his great and everything). I've always wanted to save people in stories from uninteresting characters. You can do better! P.S. Eskimos will follow the French first. Maybe they don't want to be named after the dessert cake anymore. Laughing Man: Confession: Conversations about atethals of any kind usually make my eyes glazed. I admit that oh, fuck the moment. I liked the story. I feel so impatient with stories about beautiful people. It means to fuck everything for me to read the word beautifully. In this story, the chef and his Mary Hudson are beautiful as heroes of memory and stories. I'm ashamed to try to describe it. I really liked it. Laughing Man, which he told the children. Children. Know what? I didn't make the list in ages. The coolest bus drivers:1. Chief2. Bus-driver Stu from Pete's Adventure and Pete3. Otto from The Simpsons It happens to me now that bus-driver Stu holding children hostage to his relationship problems may already have nodded to the story. Awesome. Pete and Pete make me happy, like doing almost nothing. It's as ideals as how a laughing man does beauty. No definition, just live like day-to-day without reading the rules in the first place. I suck at describing this. On their side, I would never forget those stories either. Down on Dinghy: My confessions are embarrassing. I'm not going to tell a story about when I tried to run away. It's not a good story like this. I don't remember this story, despite once naming a bird I took care of after Boo Boo.It must be great to have a mom like Boo Boo. For Esme-with love and squalor: I loved this story much more as an adult than I did as a teenager. Maybe I was too close to Esme. I was probably jealous of Esme because she was so smart for her age (I can also admit that smart kids make me feel really bad about being a dumb adult). No poise either. But it doesn't matter. Old me! It was so sweet how brother and sister were with each other. As Esme missed her father (she was probably jealous of her mom, so I wasn't as unusual as a teenager, I think)... Anyway, it made me happy how happy Buddy is to have his letter. I'm glad he wrote his story and engaged more than his brother did with his girl friends. Friendship should be more than what the other cannot understand. Pretty mouth and green my eyes: I I lose steam with this. I felt bad for Arthur ... but I didn't want to waste time on their marriage problems. I'm not comfortable hearing about them. There's nothing I can do for them. You know? I read that PJ Harvey did nod to this story title in his song Angelene. This is one of my favorite songs by Pidgey. Thank you, Wikipedia trivia! De Daumier-Smith's Blue Period: The fact is always too late, but the most special difference between happiness and joy is that happiness is firm and joy is liquid. I feel disconnected from most of this story, as with Pretty Mouth. Blame my desperate impatience for something... Maybe I want a life claiming a day that beats any day banana fish, or anything. Something more supportive. What the hell is going to happen next? Teddy: Teddy is right. It's not that good that way, loving for the sake of love. Sighs. But I think too much. I wonder how Seymour would like to talk to Teddy. He meditated and certainly did not give answers in practice. No pets are anything. Reason number two this time. Little girl... Number one, too. Difficult. It helped. I always need more. I think, however, that Salinger should not publish anything to anyone. (I always need more. tiring.) more than Seymour had done with what he put out. I guess it's not always the perfect day for banana fish. I'm so glad they were published, though. I needed them like Buddy. It's not all smiles. I've already said it's lame about things about my peanut emotions. It's the best I've got. I wish I could be better. Reason number one and number two. ... More It's one of those books.

I wanted a whole book about her! Downstairs on the boat is a sensitive little boy in exile on a family boat, and his mother gently persuades him to return to the house. This is the true genius of Salinger--- who creates perfect photos of the words of ordinary events. Nine Stories should be required research for each creative writing program. Unpretentious, seemingly light, completely original voice. If I could only write one story comparable to these, I'd be so puffed with pride I bust straight outta my corset!NB: The first story, The Perfect Day for Bananafish, could be quite jarring if you're not familiar with the family glass featured in franny and zoe's novel.

If Salinger of Young Holden betrays some wrong romanticism - a feature of a boy with life before him - in the nine stories present here look bitter one of those who has lost everything and the price continues to pay, smiling at the world.

Comment premature Teddy himself (about his parents): I mean they don't seem able to love us the way we do. They don't seem able to love us if they can't keep changing us a bit. They love their reasons to love us almost as much as they love us, and most of the time more. And then, of course, there is a fantastically called For Esme - with love and squalor, which has a number of wonderful lexical misunderstandings.

Si intuisce, Monte di questa prosa e Quando ho iniziato questo libro, attratta dalle numerose recensioni entusiastiche, le mie aspettative erano piuttosto elevate, ma mai sarei aspettata una simile incantevole suggestiva prodigiosa opera d'arte. I nove racconti sono, nessuno escluso, tra i pi'belli e stilisticamente perfetti che abbia mai letto, e ci' anche per merito della eccellente traduzione Carlo di Fruttero, che ne sottolinea la ricchezza linguistica esaltan la pregevole fattura. Si intuisce, monte di questa prosa essenziale, vivida e incisiva, un lavoro di lima meticoloso, for an unsyable maniac; cos' che ogni costruzione sintattica e ogni scelta lessicale divengano perfettamente funzionali alle esigenze esigenze espressive e alla poetica programmatica dell'autore. Chiunque si cimenti nel campo letterario dovrebbero fare proprio questo procedimento compositivo, pour evitar inconcludenti lungni descrittive, sommarie esposizioni di without a head or tail, or elementary pretentious lyrical flutters, denouncing the absolute lack of talent. Salinger, on the other hand, has a great talent: he describes in detail the appearance and gestures of his characters, reproduces their conversations through expressive, realistic and generally not common dialogues, but above all manages to make the reader not just an external viewer and foreign facts and moods, but almost the main character among the main characters, emotionally involved and personally involved. In the face of such precise contextualization, it is a surprising ending that the writer reserves for individual stories: something suspended, open to different interpretations, newly delineated and invisible, painful, disturbing, caustic, moving, disturbing. All this reminded me, by combining ideas, about the poetic results of the contrast between the finished and not finished in the work of sculptor Michelangelo. For Michelangelo, the form, the sculptural figure, is already enclosed, as a prisoner, in shapeless matter, that is, in a block of marble; to bring it to light requires a subtraction process, which consists of lifting overwork, excess stone, sometimes until the most irritated resurfacing, which captures and refracts the light. Pure physics. Schiavo is called Atlante - Florence, Galleria dell'AccademiaIn some sculptures, especially the most mature age, the artist chooses, however, to leave some parts, more or less extensive, simply rough, rough and as scratched chisel, using not finished as an expressive technical instrument aimed at emphasizing concepts that inspire his compositional genius: heroic tension to beauty, absolute, infinite; conflict between body and spirit, between life and death; and, more generally, to express the unspeakable: that no language seems sufficient to clarify or materialize. Pieto Rondanini, 1552-64, Milan, Castello SforcescoTo, however, seems to make Salinger, who with a certain and polished word releases the pure physicality of his characters from the captivity of silence, but through his unfulfilled / unarticious details neglects to explain the inexplicable, namely the spirit, interior, feelings, fears, regrets, the closest and secret impulses of the human soul. And, as it should be, it leaves the reader to decipher the message using the tools of his personal sensitivity and experience. Each story included in the collection is a small scenario that opens up about the world, history and many lives, including the reader. It's an amazing experience. ... No longer too fond of Salinger Catcher in the rye - and, in fact, vivid memories of me throwing him through about 100 pages in a distant, dusty corner of pure tedium in high school (reading assignments are a hemlock for minds) - I wasn't particularly looking forward to his collection of short stories. Will it just be an assortment of variations at Holden Caulfield? I was afraid of the worst. Boy was I happy I was proven wrong. Let's talk about living up to low expectations, right? As I don't really like Salinger Catcher in the Rye - and, in fact, vivid memories of me throwing it through about 100 pages in a distant, dusty corner of pure tedium in high school (reading assignments are a hemlock for stubborn minds) - I wasn't particularly looking forward to his collection of short stories. Will it just be an assortment of variations at Holden Caulfield? I was afraid of the worst. Boy was I happy I was proven wrong. Let's talk about living up to low expectations, right? How I want the scholastic authorities to assign us this, not this boorish novel. In that case, I wouldn't have to look for an online resume to pass my bloody test. In fact, I may even have been stupid enough to find the hipster J.J. Salinger a cult of worship. A missed opportunity, I tell you! These subtle tales are replete with memorable, erroneous, authentic (non-irritating!) characters you can invest in. Clear highlights are the perfect day for Bananafish and especially poignant, very moving for Esme - with love and squalor, but they are all excellent examples of the quality of writing. Not a dummy in a heap. Turning the last page, it is hard not to feel the agony of sadness, irretrievable loss. Salinger would like to prejudge the infamous reclusiveness that has plagued him for the past 45 years and has written more of them. What masterpieces the world missed as a result can only be guessed. ... more I was surprised at how good some of these stories turned out to be, after not getting my hopes on all that special.

And as a fan of the stories of John Civer, Raymond Carver and Richard Aits, Salinger sits in this company very well, creating brief snapshots of life that capture sparkling poignant moments, usually focusing on adults encountering overly knowledgeable, truthful children. The heart of each story is set to the beat of their characters' accounts of how they navigate the world and interact with each other, from their confidential phone calls and wisecracking conversations, to the careful articulation of their understated feelings and nascent beliefs. Characters are chosen mainly for their ability to spark powerful dialogue. And the heavy dialogue used in some stories just works superbly well. Brightly told, with gentle humor and a heightened sense of emotion, this collection begins with a stunning Perfect Day for Bananafish, and sets the scene for the other eight stories, all of which ranged from good to very good. There was also a little Scott Fitzgerald out there, a little less on love torment. My faves were - Perfect day for BananafishSy man for Esme: with love and squalor ...

I had a feeling that in a way, the stories represented our disconnections from each other, from reality, and from full knowledge; slippery grip we have our perception, and our tendency is judged too quickly. Salinger often gets this through arresting dialogue between people, usually at least one of the individuals in some ways most of these stories make a statement (or two, or more) about how our past, and our interactions with each other, affect our lives. I had a feeling that in a way, the stories represented our disconnections from each other, from reality, and from full knowledge; slippery grip we have our perception, and our tendency is judged too quickly. Salinger often gets this through arrest dialogue between individuals, usually at least one of the individuals in kind of genus from your normal standards. The entrance to the inner world of Salinger's character is an experience that everyone should have. His children are the best I've experienced; Like its tight edges, outsage characters - you know the type: they chain smoke, speak traits a lot, and a sharp, smartass tongue that bespeaks strength. However, it becomes clear that they have been hurt in some way in the past and that they have a soft spot inside. Salinger shows this in some beautiful ways and eventually, towards the end of the story, you see a special side of these people. Characters that at first seemed funny and interesting, eventually make you see something in them. Yes, they are faltering and off, but they are also special, and you can see that their reality may actually be higher than yours. at least in a way. Doesn't that apply to kids, in general? That they see the world in a completely different way from us adults? And aren't some of these paradigms innocent, beautiful and pure? Or maybe it's because they don't have a paradigm that's true. While we cannot escape all our preconceived notions, they are free of them. Even some of Salinger's non-children characters have this element in their personality. Many of the endings of these stories are phenomenal. They always contain surprise, sometimes with room for broad interpretation; usually make you think and think. However, there is still a sense of mystery; not knowing the full story. Through these endings, your interpretation of what you read changes; The way you've seen the story shifts often leads to quick, new perception and aha! Moments. And, if your experience is like mine, you then continue to reflect and doubt your ideas about the story further. I couldn't give these five stars. Some of the stories, such as Shortly Before the War on the Eskimos and Down the Boat, didn't flow enough for me, and ultimately they lacked neither consistency nor emotional attraction. (By the way, my star ratings for the story are in the picture above, just to the left of each story listed. A: They really make you think.) Another Salinger I read is Catcher and Rye, which I read twice and enjoy, but come up with enough love. After reading this I can further see how Salinger has a following that loves him. His characters are unusual and intriguing, and his way of viewing the world is special and ingenious. It's a book you have to get hold of. ... The more perfect day for Bananafish is perfect.
