I stood in front of the computer to browse through all that stuff put on websites every day and so when I read this news that nearly left me dry. He, I mean the old JD was dead. Let's be frank: it was as if he had been dead ever since in practice it was buried alive after writing a book. A book only because the others - we are even more honest - it's as if they had been ever written. But I bought them anyway. The others. It 'obvious. Finally, because the only one that interested me was that, I bought in English, to read his exact words and not those of the translator. I know that you can understand, that you know why I'm writing in this way and everything.
So now I know how it feels when one dies of those writers. Before I did not know because when I read the version of the old Barney he was already dead (cazzo! fucking shit!).
are books that when you have finished reading and all that follows that the author would like to be your friend for the skin and can call on the phone every time you turn. No one can call JD to the old phone. And probably even before, if you had come to doubt. E 'by people like him in front of a frozen lake in the midst of skyscrapers, we learn to ask the right question. That is: where the ducks go in winter?
He was 91. An age that I would do the signing, if you really want to know. But that's another story. They were not to name a school of writing. He hated these things. He would have hated a post like this, for that matter. The light had written: "I hope with all my soul when I die someone will have much common sense to be thrown into the river or something. No matter what, rather than stuck in a damn graveyard." Imagine if would have welcomed a damn "crocodile."
Del Giovane Holden I'd love to write a book that is exceptional, etcetera, etcetera, but I refrain. Outstanding. If there's one word I hate is exceptional. It's so fake. I wish I wrote it myself. But it was him. If only we could call on the phone, who knows what he would say.
a minimum: you read a few passages of HERE JD Salinger. I swear it's the stuff of goose bumps.
