If you read "At Home in the World" by Joyce Maynard and "Dream Catcher" by Margaret Salinger (J.D.'s daughter), it's clear that J.D. Salinger has been writing all these years, and has been preserving his manuscripts, and has instructions on what to do with them after he dies. What's unknown, of course, is how good the work is. If you consider the crabby, flaky recluse portrayed by those two (admittedly biased) authors, it's hard to think the work's going to be any good. With all due respect and good wishes to Mr Salinger, we should soon see.
