Documentary Claims Five New Salinger Books Are On The Way
Gawker has the story. If it's true, this is huge news on the literary front...
A documentary and book, both set for release next month, claim that five unpublished books written by J.D. Salinger will be released, including stories that continue the arc of the Glass family and his most famous creation, Holden Caulfield. Salinger died in 2010 after living the majority of his life in famous near-seclusion, never releasing another published work for over forty years. The new documentary "Salinger," claims that he left instructions to his trust to publish five more of his books, beginning as soon as 2015.
Of course there have been reports for many decades that these books exist, but Salinger always denied it. Needless to say, I'll be watching this story closely.
