Howard Zinn, 87, and J.D. Salinger, 91, die
Both of these great writers -- one of history and one of fiction -- died today. I never read Catcher in the Rye but have heard of how good it is. Zinn, however, I have read and it dismays me that someone who was able to write about US history in the view point of something other than that of the conqueror is now gone. Hopefully there will be others just as eloquent.
RIP Howard and J.D.
