from the whole publishing scene. But it did not discourage him from writing. Although many speculations, bordering on myth, have surrounded Salinger as a mystery man, it is known that he has kept writing profusely for half a century. Writing, not for anyone else but himself. And all this writing is only to be published after his death. Apparently, he has files and files of work and it includes at least two novels. How much there is in its entirety, few know. But you can be sure that when the day comes for all this material to be released (over years, I'm sure) it will be one of the most significant events in literature and publishing for decades to come."
