Sinossi
"Tanto per cominciare, Zooey era un giovanotto piccolo, dal corpo estremamente esile. Da dietro (soprattutto dove gli si vedevano le vertebre) sarebbe quasi potuto passare per uno di quegli sparuti bambini di città che ogni estate vengono spediti alle colonie a ingrassarsi e prendere il sole. Visto in primo piano, di faccia o di profilo, era straordinariamente, spettacolosamente bello. La sorella maggiore mi ha pregato di dire che assomigliava all'"esploratore mohicano ebreo-irlandese dagli occhi azzurri che morì tra le vostre braccia al tavolo della roulette di Montecarlo". A salvare in extremis quel volto dall'eccessiva bellezza, se non addirittura dallo splendore, era un orecchio che sporgeva leggermente più dell'altro."

I'm sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody. The blinking cursor that preceded this review, the place-holder of possibility before the big bang of creation, speaks volumes when taken in relation to J.D. Salinger’s exquisite Franny and Zooey . In a novel about identity, about forging wh Leggi tutto

Logically, it seems that maybe shorter books would be harder to love. You spend less time with the characters, the narrative complexity must be limited, y Leggi tutto
I wish I could rate the two sections separately -- Franny was an easy 5/5, one of the best things I've ever read, whereas Zooey was 3.5/5. Overall, though, there are SO many outrageous, hilarious, and brilliant moments, presented by Salinger with an air of fond mockery. "I do like him. I'm sick of ju Leggi tutto
I am a huge JD Salinger fan, and I'm one of those people who's read "Catcher in the Rye" like 200 times, several times a year since I was about twelve. I buy into every cliche said about it: it changed my life, it made me want to write, it validated my own teen angst, Salinger captures teen-speak am Leggi tutto
“I am not sure that I exist, actually.

If you liked Catcher in the Rye more than your average novel, then you probably have considered reading Franny and Zooey. It's one of very few books that J.D. Salinger wrote because he kind of turned into a weird old recluse. I was really excited about reading this. I expected big things. Needless t Leggi tutto
من توى يک مهمانى، در اتاقى در بسته تمامش كردم. بعد موقع برگشت، كتاب را كردم توى شلوارم و با پاى برهنه توى خيابان خلوت ساعت سه صبح قدم زدم، و به اين فكر كردم كه من دقيقاً به دنبال چى هستم؟ فرانی فرانی دختری است تحصیلکرده و باهوش (خصوصیت مشترک همه ی خانواده ی گلاس) که از قشر روشنفکر که خودش هم جزئی از آن Leggi tutto
