Franny and Zooey (Centennial Edition)

Book Overview: Franny and Zooey (Centennial Edition)

“Perhaps the best book by the foremost stylist of his generation” (New York Times), J. D. Salinger’s Franny and Zooey collects two works of fiction about the Glass family originally published in The New Yorker.

“Everything everybody does is so–I don’t know–not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and–sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you’re conforming just as much only in a different way.”

A novel in two halves, Franny and Zooey brilliantly captures the emotional strains and traumas of entering adulthood. It is a gleaming example of the wit, precision, and poignancy that have made J. D. Salinger one of America’s most beloved writers.

J. D. Salinger

J. D. Salinger was an American author, best known for his critically acclaimed novel “The Catcher in the Rye,” published in 1951. Born on January 1, 1919, in Manhattan, New York, Salinger began writing short stories while in secondary school and developed a profound interest in literature. He served in World War II, and his war experiences influenced his writing. “Nine Stories,” “Franny and Zooey,” and “Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction” are prominent works that added to his fame. Salinger was notorious for his reclusive nature, spending the last decades of his life away from the public eye. He passed away on January 27, 2010, leaving a lasting legacy in American literature.
