El icono que desapareció. Criado en privilegio Park Avenue, JD Salinger buscó combate, sobrevivir cinco sangrientas batallas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la liberación de un campo de exterminio, y de ese crisol que creó una novela, El guardián entre el centeno, que viajó profundamente en su propia desesperación y redefinido América de la posguerra. Por más de cincuenta años, Salinger ha sido una de las figuras más elusivas de la historia americana. Todos los intentos por descubrir la verdad acerca de por qué su desaparición han sido socavados por la falta de acceso y el reciclaje de información inexacta. En el curso de una investigación de nueve años, y especialmente en los tres años transcurridos desde la muerte de Salinger, David Shields y Shane Salerno han entrevistado a más de 200 personas de los cinco continentes (muchos de los cuales habían negado a ir en el registro) para resolver el misterio de lo que le pasó a Salinger.

Work Description
The boy who became a rebel. The rebel who became a soldier. The soldier who became an icon. The icon who disappeared. This biography draws on extensive research and exclusive interviews to share previously undisclosed aspects of the enigmatic writer's life, from his private relationships and service in World War II to his legal concerns and innermost secrets. Raised in Park Avenue privilege, J.D. Salinger sought out combat, surviving five bloody battles of World War II and the liberation of a death camp, and out of that crucible he created a novel, The Catcher in the Rye, which journeyed deep into his own despair and redefined postwar America. For more than fifty years, Salinger has been one of the most elusive figures in American history. All of the attempts to uncover the truth about why he disappeared have been undermined by a lack of access and the recycling of inaccurate information. In the course of a nine-year investigation, and especially in the three years since Salinger's death, the authors have interviewed more than 200 people on five continents (many of whom had previously refused to go on the record) to solve the mystery of what happened to Salinger. - Publisher.
