JD Salinger, America's favorite curmudgeonly old literary hermit has died. Somehow it was comforting to know he was out there somewhere in the wilds of New Hampshire, refusing to interact with the rest of us. He has gone where his notoriety cannot follow.
Go out and call someone a phony today in memory of a literary legend.
