Jerome David Salinger, was born in New York City on Jan. 1, 1919, and established his reputation on the basis of a single novel, The Catcher in the Rye (1951), whose principal character, Holden Caulfield, epitomized the growing pains of a generation of high school and college students. The public attention that followed the success of the book led Salinger to move from New York to the remote hills of Cornish, New Hampshire. Before that he had published only a few short stories; one of them, "A Perfect Day for Bananafish," which appeared in The New Yorker in 1949, introduced readers to Seymour Glass, a character who subsequently figured in Franny and Zooey (1961) and Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenter and Seymour: An Introduction (1963), Salinger's only other published books. Of his 35 published short stories, those which Salinger wishes to preserve are collected in Nine Stories (1953).

九故事卷首引禅宗公案:“吾人知悉二掌相击之声,然则独手拍之音又何若?” 禅宗公案历来玄微。试做一解: 二掌相击当然是“啪”的一声。那么,单手拍掌会是什么声音呢? 当你在心里思索“单手拍掌”时,甚至只要你的念头一触及到“拍掌”这个单词时,其实你心里早已“啪”的响...
评分 评分 评分《九故事》结集发表于1953年,晚于《麦田里的守望者》(1951),但其中除《泰迪》(1953)以及《De Daumier-Smith的忧郁岁月》(1952)两个故事之外,其它七个故事之前都先后在《纽约客》发表上过。因此,有人看低《麦田守望者》,认为塞林格在写九故事的时候小说功夫才开始“...
评分百读不厌
评分语言其实也不难,简洁精悍,但就是读得迷迷糊糊,很不好懂
评分九个故事8个半没读懂,没读进脑子里。最后半个故事,却恰恰重叠了我此刻的一个突来的观点,倒真是奇妙。
评分塞林格粉必读,人物对白可用于高阶conversation analysis。
评分中文的去年看过以后不知道塞哪里去了,只能拿手头的英文本再看一遍。 喜欢九故事远甚于麦田,喜欢塞林格的第三人称故事,远甚于第一人称。 喜欢他的对话描写远甚于场景、动作描写。 几乎每篇里面总会有人物lit a cigarette或者crossed legs~~
