Happy Belated Birthday, Holden Caulfield



D*mn! I forgot to post this yesterday: J.D. Salinger’s profane-but-not-phony novel, The Catcher In the Rye, was published 51 years -- and one day -- ago.

According to Wikipedia, Jerry Lewis was an early contender to play Holden in a proposed feature film adaptation.
