But, I've always thought the two were better articulators of the fallacy of the modern world. I do always appreciate a good literary slap in the face to the emptiness of the status quo, though – so may Salinger Rest in Peace. I didn't care too much for Catcher in the Rye, or Holden Caufield, but I understand the book's impact, and note the sadness at the passing of JD Salinger. I'm not going to get payday loans to buy his collected works – and I think teen angst, or dissatisfaction with the picture of the world was better channeled by others, in my opinion.; 8:15 AM, January 30, 2010
