The Catcher in the Rye
J.D. Salinger, 1951
SALINGER, J.D. (1919-2010). The Catcher in the Rye. Boston: Little, Brown and Company, 1951.
First edition, first printing. Catcher's protagonist, Holden Caulfield, has entered the pantheon of American literary heroes. In the years following World War II, “the young used many voices—anger, contempt, self-pity—but the quietest, that of a decent perplexed American adolescent, proved the most telling" (Burgess, 99 Novels, pp. 53-54).
Octavo. Original black cloth; original pictorial dust jacket by Michael Mitchell with portrait photograph of Salinger on rear panel (light toning, spine panel and one spot on lower flap fold reinforced on verso, light rubbing at folds and edges, small chips to extremities). Custom clamshell case.
