Abstract

J.D. Salinger was best known for his 1951 novel "Catcher in the Rye." He was also known for his reclusiveness. His literary oeuvre effectively ended in the mid 1960s and little was known about his personal life until quite recently. One of those little-known personal details is that Salinger was Jewish. This article discusses Salinger in the context of his New York Jewish background. Click on the link above to read the article.
