Another one lost: J. D. Salinger

[Roger Bunting]

J. D. Salinger has died at the age of 91, as quietly as he lived for the latter decades of his life.

 

[Beelzebrush]

91 is a cracking good innings. A writer that I very much respected. Catcher in the Rye is a wonderful book.

 

[Gunnila]

Let him rest in peace.
He's made quite a name for himself.

 

[IdofEntity]

Though his body now composts, his literature will live on for at least another 100 years or so. Better than us slogs have done so far, non?

 

[AinuLainour]

R.I.P. ..Unbelievable talent.

 

[Elthiar]

This year has just began and there is already a growing list of talent leaving us that will be sorely missed.
