Il giorno perfetto dei pescibanana. All'ultima riga ho detto "what?" . Direi quasi cinematografico

"Teddy ficou um momento ali na porta, pensativamente lidando com a maçaneta, que virava para um lado e para o outro. 'Depois que eu sair por essa porta, pode ser que eu exista só na cabeça de quem me conhece'"

De Daumier-smith might be my favorite “short” story ever. I wish it were longer. It reminds me of how quick things can change, and for little to no apparent reason. We are one experience away from enlightenment. And enlightenment is a solid, but joy is a liquid

Pretty mouth and green my eyes. Lovely story. Great ending!

De Daumier-Smith‘s Blue Period: ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

Pretty mouth and green my eyes: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

«پیش از جنگ با اسکیموها» بهترین داستان کوتاهی شد که تاحالا خوندم...

Beautifully sad.

"As frases dele normalmente tinham ao menos um lapso de controle de respiração, de modo que muitas vezes as palavras que ele enfatizava, em vez de subir, afundavam.˜

it’s bussin your honor

i borrowed this book from the school library !! i haven't gone there in so long

This collection has been so nice to read. Having so much Salinger greatness back to back; humor, nonsense, devastation—has made it impossible to put down.

"Per Esmé: con amore e squallore" miglior racconto fino ad ora, il mio cuore ne è rattristato e felice.

4/9

just flipped to the table of contents while reading bc i was like damn i wonder how many stories are in here

- two stories

3/9 Bananafish is my favorite so far, but all three were brilliant.

Well, that banana fish story certainly took a turn.

I’m reading Salinger for his craft. His substance is penetrating and his characters sharply drawn. At the end of each story I am tied in knots and need to re-read.
