I accidentally read this in 8th grade. It was in the book shelf and it had to have been my mother’s book. Maybe from college?
My granmother was bothered that I was reading it. She said something about “bad language”. Funny, she had no Idea I could already talk like a sailor.
Grandma probably didn’t like the idea of my mom reading it in the early 60′s. Thanks for writing it Mr. Salinger. Thanks mom, for breaking in grandma.
Oooh, and I think I need to read it again.
Rest in peace, Mr. Salinger.
