Librarian Note: There is more than one author by this name in the Goodreads database.

Works, most notably novel The Catcher in the Rye (1951), of American writer Jerome David Salinger often concern troubled, sensitive adolescents.

People well know this author for his reclusive nature. He published his last original work in 1965 and gave his last interview in 1980. Reared in city of New York, Salinger began short stories in secondary school and published several stories in the early 1940s before serving in World War II. In 1948, he published the critically acclaimed story "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" in The New Yorker, his subsequent home magazine. He released an immediate popular success. His depiction of adolescent alienation and loss of innocence in the protagonist Holden Caulfield especially influenced adolescent readers. Widely read and controversial, sells a quarter-million copies a year.

The success led to public attention and scrutiny: reclusive, he published new work less frequently. He followed with a short story collection, Nine Stories (1953), of a novella and a short story, Franny and Zooey (1961), and a collection of two novellas, Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction (1963). His last published work, a novella entitled "Hapworth 16, 1924", appeared in The New Yorker on June 19, 1965.

Afterward, Salinger struggled with unwanted attention, including a legal battle in the 1980s with biographer Ian Hamilton. In the late 1990s, Joyce Maynard, a close ex-lover, and Margaret Salinger, his daughter, wrote and released his memoirs. In 1996, a small publisher announced a deal with Salinger to publish "Hapworth 16, 1924" in book form, but the ensuing publicity indefinitely delayed the release.

Another writer used one of his characters, resulting in copyright infringement; he filed a lawsuit against this writer and afterward made headlines around the globe in June 2009. Salinger died of natural causes at his home in Cornish, New Hampshire.

2.6/5 - “Go See Eddie”: Only 3 pgs, this JD Salinger story has a sloppy brother visit his pretty, organized sister, coming to carp about her affair w/ a married man. He insists she take a job in a play he and her ex are involved in, seemingly to take her attentions away from the “once in a lifetime love” she thinks she’s experiencing w/ this fellow. Her brother even admits he’s had lunch w/ the wife and heard rumors about how promiscuous and crummy she’s become. It ends in her making an array of calls I’m not sure what to make of: the philanderer and the other man she’s rumored to be horsing around w/, sounding discontent w/ both. Seems she thinks both men have started these remarks and trying to distance themselves from her.

The short story “Go See Eddie” by J.D. Salinger is written in a form of dialogue between brother and sister. The reader immediately immerses in the story’s events, a kind of everyday scene from life, and is able to observe what is going on.

Salinger does not express his opinion, he allows readers to think about the characters and their actions.

The kind of story that stays inside your head for the imagery and for the "limited" physical place it unfolds as well as its short length.

I really enjoyed this story, and it really kept you interested for such a short time. However, I would say it could’ve used some more scenery, and dialogue tags. Anyway, I really liked this!
