Kurzbeschreibung
The author writes: FRANNY came out in The New Yorker in 1955, and was swiftly followed, in 1957 by ZOOEY. Both stories are early, critical entries in a narrative series I'm doing about a family of settlers in twentieth-century New York, the Glasses. It is a long-term project, patently an ambiguous one, and there is a real-enough danger, I suppose that sooner or later I'll bog down, perhaps disappear entirely, in my own methods, locutions, and mannerisms. On the whole, though, I'm very hopeful. I love working on these Glass stories, I've been waiting for them most of my life, and I think I have fairly decent, monomaniacal plans to finish them with due care and all-available skill.
Synopsis
Two children of the Glass family appear in separate stories laid in twentieth-century New York.

I read Catcher in the Rye many years ago, and absolutely loved it, as much people do. However, I hadn't heard much about any of his other books, so recently I decided to look into it. This is when I fell upon Franny and Zooey. This book means a lot to me now for many reasons. It's a work of absolute genius. You can see hints of Holden in Zooey AND Franny, and I always like when an author makes subtle hints towards a different book. Franny and Zooey touches on everything - love, family, religion - and youth. The way Salinger portrays Franny to me is moving. She's this lovely young girl, who seemingly has everything for the taking; however, the road to adulthood makes her question EVERYTHING. Many young people question everything, and sometimes I don't think it's talked about enough. Salinger does it justice. Another reason I enjoyed this book is because you can definitely see what an influential author he was. Kurt Vonnegut HAD to have been an admirer. This book is fabulous, deep, and interesting. Who knows? It may make you look at life from a different perspective.

I appreciate amazon. com's effort to give brief reviews of books so that people may browse, and find something that catches their fancy. What I don't like is the obvious fact that whoever wrote this reviewer obviously never read the book. At best they might have skimmed it. First thing, Franny is not pregnant. Her physical illness is a manafestation of her spiritual crisis. also she's not worried about her friends becoming housewives. Lastly, Zooey is not there simply to pester Franny. The book is just a wee bit deeper than that. Salinger is analyzing the form of function of religion, and also connecting it to the family structure, Zooey's comment about Franny not recognizing a bowl of "consecrated" chicken soup is one of the cornerstones of the novel. Jesus, or what ever spiritual entity you choose to identify with, in Salinger's opinion, is not just some abstract being sitting on high, looking down at us without caring. Instead, as one of the quotes on Seymour and Buddy's door says, "I move not without thy knowledge." The Zooey story is one of the most important religious/philisophical works of the second half of the twentieth century. It ranks with Camus' The Plague as some of the best descriptions of the human condition. To trivialize it the way that the amazon.com review is a shame for fans of the book. More importantly, it might deny others the chance of discovering this boo

I'll have to admit that when I first picked up this book, I kept thinking how much more I liked _Catcher_, my personal favorite of all time. Of course, maybe that's because I still haven't made the mental transition from youth to adulthood (though maybe I should have by now). Both stories read much like _Catcher_, though obviously written on a higher level. Like most other readers, I got more out of Franny than Zooey, though both carry powerful messages. I really don't think you can read one without the other, though I believe they were originally published separately. If you like this book, be sure to pick up a copy of _Nine Stories_-- _A Perfect Day for Bananafish_ will strike you as being oddly familiar. A must read for any Salinger fan!

Salinger is a great writer, but I'm just not that interested here. Apologies to the loyalists.
