Book Description
A shattering biographical novel of J.D. Salinger in combat “Charyn skillfully breathes life into historical icons.” —New Yorker J.D. Salinger, mysterious author of The Catcher in the Rye, is remembered today as a reclusive misanthrope. Jerome Charyn’s Salinger is a young American WWII draftee assigned to the Counter Intelligence Corps, a band of secret soldiers who trained with the British. A rifleman and an interrogator, he witnessed all the horrors of the war—from the landing on D-Day to the relentless hand-to-hand combat in the hedgerows of Normandy, to the Battle of the Bulge, and finally to the first Allied entry into a Bavarian death camp, where corpses were piled like cordwood. After the war, interned in a Nuremberg psychiatric clinic, Salinger became enchanted with a suspected Nazi informant. They married, but not long after he brought her home to New York, the marriage collapsed. Maladjusted to civilian life, he lived like a “spook,” with invisible stripes on his shoulder, the ghosts of the murdered inside his head, and stories to tell. Grounded in biographical fact and reimagined as only Charyn could, Sergeant Salinger is an astonishing portrait of a devastated young man on his way to becoming the mythical figure behind a novel that has marked generations. Jerome Charyn is the author of more than fifty works of fiction and nonfiction, including Cesare: A Novel of War-Torn Berlin. He lives in New York.

Book Description
Detective Jeffrey Madison is known for bringing miscreants to justice, but lately has found himself tired of the same petty crimes that never seem to end. First Bobby Rae steals from the convenience store, and then tries to buy his freedom because he feels that he has done nothing wrong. Then Ms. Clayhorn needs him to rescue her Calico cat and grandson, who managed to end up at the top of the same oak tree, although the older lady seemed more concerned with the cat than her sobbing grandson. Feeling disgruntled for the first time in his police career, Jeffrey decides to leave for home a bit earlier than usual just to relax and wind down. However, before he can get out of the front door, he receives one more phone call. Debating between leaving it and answering, he decided to pick up the call and was shocked to hear a young voice telling him that "fishy business is underfoot." About to dismiss the call as nothing more than a prank, Jeffrey's curiosity is aroused when the caller introduces herself as "the fully certified deputy for Sunshine Valley Little Creek neighborhood's watch" and informs him that a crime is about to take place. Acting on instinct, Jeffrey follows the lead, and finds twelve-year-old MATTIE McDANIELS, who teaches him that detective business is about so much more than meets the eye.

Book Description
J.D. Salinger remains one of America’s best known but least understood writers. His 1951 book, The Catcher in the Rye, lives on as one of the most iconic American novels of all time. Yet after his commercial and literary success, Salinger soon retreated to a rural town in New Hampshire and lived in seclusion for the rest of his life. He wrote nearly every day but didn’t publish any of his work after 1965. He became famous for not wanting to be famous. His story, however, is not over. His son, Matt, has been sorting through the unpublished writing Salinger left behind after his death in 2010. Most of these stories will be released soon, and are heavily influenced by his years in seclusion. Salinger’s Soul tells of his traumatic experience in World War II, as well as his transition from the Judaism of his youth to his embrace of a mystical form of Hinduism known as Vedanta. It was Vedanta that influenced his post Catcher fiction, from Nine Stories to Franny and Zooey. Yet Salinger veered from Vedanta in one crucial way: he didn’t heed its dictum to lead a life of celibacy. Instead, Salinger was obsessed with young women, those “in the last minutes of their girlhood.” In all, his wartime experience, his religious beliefs, and his romantic relationships defined his life in seclusion and influenced his writing. Salinger’s Soul looks at his little-known personal voyage of discovery.
