The author of The Catcher in the Rye died on Wednesday. Even though we don't seem to see any badfics of his works, I wanted to bring it up.

Salinger never allowed Catcher to be made into a film, despite numerous requests. Hopefully his wishes will continue to be respected now (especially since the Movie of the Book always seems to attract Mary-Sues).

There's also a rumor that he had some unpublished manuscripts in his home. Hopefully, he left instructions for them to be released, as I hate for literature be lost...

But anyway, I just thought we should take a moment to recognize his work and remember him.
