Publisher's Summary

An obsessive (if strange) pilgrimage to the late J.D. Salinger's New Hampshire sanctuary, where, if you listened closely, you could hear the sound of one man hiding.

"The Catcher in the Driveway" was originally published in Esquire, June 1997.

Clever

Originally published in Esquire Magazine. A foray into J D Salinger’s reclusive life, via driveway stakeout. It could just be inappropriate lurking around his supposed property, however the history shared on the writer’s life made it somehow ok. A nice light listen.
