Krátky popis
Based on eight years of exhaustive research and exclusive
interviews with more than 200 people-and published in coordination
with the international theatrical release of a major documentary
film from the Weinstein Company-The Private War of J.D. Salinger is
a global cultural event: the definitive biography of one of the
most beloved and mysterious figures of the twentieth century. For
more than fifty years, the ever elusive author of The Catcher in
the Rye has been the subject of a relentless stream of newspaper
and magazine articles as well as several biographies. Yet all of
these attempts have been hampered by a fundamental lack of access
and by the persistent recycling of inaccurate information. Salinger
remains, astonishingly, an enigma. The complex and contradictory
human being behind the myth has never been revealed. No longer. In
the eight years since The Private War of J.D. Salinger was begun,
and especially in the three years since Salinger's death, the
authors interviewed on five continents more than 200 people, many
of whom had previously refused to go on the record about their
relationship with Salinger. This oral biography offers direct
eyewitness accounts from Salinger's World War II brothers-in-arms,
his family members, his close friends, his lovers, his classmates,
his neighbors, his editors, his publishers, his New Yorker
colleagues, and people with whom he had relationships that were
secret even to his own family. Shields and Salerno illuminate most
brightly the last fifty-six years of Salinger's life: a period
that, until now, had remained completely dark to biographers.
Provided unprecedented access to never-before-published photographs
(more than 100 throughout the book), diaries, letters, legal
records, and secret documents, readers will feel they have, for the
first time, gotten beyond Salinger's meticulously built-up wall.
The result is the definitive portrait of one of the most
fascinating figures of the twentieth century.
