Reviews
"No American writer will ever have a more alert ear, a more attentive eye, or a more ardent heart than Salinger's."-- Adam Gopnik , New Yorker, "No American writer will ever have a more alert ear, a more attentive eye, or a more ardent heart than Salinger's." -- Adam Gopnik , New Yorker, "Salinger's final confrontation with all the strains of his earlier fiction: sentimentality, depression, Eastern philosophy, isolation, and the guilt of being happy."-- Chris Wilson , Slate, "We mustn't be blind to what Salinger has accomplished by virtue of his overabundant love...The Glass stories retain an extraordinary interest and appeal."-- John Romano , New York Times

Synopsis
The last book-length work of fiction by J. D. Salinger published in his lifetime collects two novellas about "one of the liveliest, funniest, most fully realized families in all fiction" ( New York Times ). These two novellas, set seventeen years apart, are both concerned with Seymour Glass--the eldest son of J. D. Salinger's fictional Glass family--as recalled by his closest brother, Buddy. "He was a great many things to a great many people while he lived, and virtually all things to his brothers and sisters in our somewhat outsized family. Surely he was all real things to us: our blue-striped unicorn, our double-lensed burning glass, our consultant genius, our portable conscience, our supercargo, and our one full poet..."

    Great seller, exactly as pictured/described. quick shipping, well packaged. Books arrived in very, very good shape. A very good value for the price. Book was shipped sepeartely from the main package (4 books total) which caused some confusion when receiving them, but I figured it out. 2 tracking numbers actually used (2 packages), but only one was listed.

    Item arrived quickly and was in good condition for a used textbook, just as described. Priced great. Appears just as pictured. Basic level one Spanish textbook which touches on culture as well as grammar and vocabulary. Item was shipped in thin plastic envelope and could've used better packing, but was not damaged during delivery. Would use this seller again.

    Books are just as shown in the pictures. Though a bit dirtier than expected, the price was right. Since the seller gave the package, which was well packed, directly to USPS, instead of an intermediate carrier, it arrived very quickly. I would buy from this seller again.
