Nice cover, I've not seen that one before.

I've only read "Catcher In the Rye" and whilst I enjoyed it, it wasn't the life changing book I thought it might be. Still sad to hear of his passing.

I think it's a wonderful book, if not quite the top contender for the title of 'greatest American novel'.

I have to say I read all of his novels and still keep copies of them in my library. I don't think they changed my life but they were all very good and this is truly a sad day....he was a hell of writer.
