But the book lives on


J.D. Salinger has died.

But our hero, Holden Caufield, opines on issues of war and peace:

Anyway, I'm sort of glad they've got the atomic bomb invented. If there's ever another war, I'm going to sit right the hell on top of it. I'll volunteer for it, I swear to God I will. ~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye, Chapter 18
