“Catcher in the Rye” to Stay a Literary Masterpiece
J.D. Salinger, author of "Catcher in the Rye."
J.D. Salinger died yesterday in his home in . The famous author of “Catcher in the Rye” and several short stories and novellas like “Franny and Zooey” and “A Perfect Day for Bananafish” had lots of fans. Salinger’s fans particularly liked his character Holden Caulfield in “Catcher in the Rye,” who moved young readers with his loss of innocence and inner thoughts.
Because of Holden, Salinger was regularly being asked to sell the rights to “Catcher in the Rye” it seemed. But he never ever sold them…and this letter shooting down yet another director’s request explains why.
Salinger, an incredibly private person, will be remembered through his stories…just like other people who are successful and do great work in their fields will be remembered for those accomplishments, too.
What will you be remembered for in your business? How can you work now to better your legacy, so to speak?
