Here I am giggling away and dropped when I suddenly realised an icon is gone. J.D. Salinger, probably one of the most notable and obtrusive authors of the 20th century, has died. I remember reading The Catcher in the Rye a few years ago because I had always wondered about notoriety, and honestly left it a bit disappointed. However, speaking to a number of friends, I found out it is really a "boy book". Now that his dead, will it finally be turned into a movie, and who will play Holden Caulfield? Now must read Franny and Zooey!
