Product Description
A sharp and poignant snapshot of the crises of youth - from the acclaimed author of The Catcher in the Rye
'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.'
First published in the New Yorker as two sequential stories in the 1950's , the two novellas 'Franny' and 'Zooey' offer a dual portrait of the two youngest members of J. D. Salinger's fictional Glass family. This edition was first published by Penguin UK in 1961, here in a 1970 reprint, in a plain silver cover , titles in black and white.
Condition - there is bumping to the back cover, edgewear to the spine, and an erased previous owner's name to the title page.
