I’ve been listening to your chat with Stephen Shepard, will get a copy of ‘Salinger’s Soul’. This very interesting podcast took me back ten years to the day I met Joanna Rakoff, she came into Hatchards to sign her book “My Year With Salinger”, loved that book, a coming of age for a girl in New York with ambitions of being a writer and getting there via Salinger’s literary agency sorting and replying to his massive fan mail the BBC first gave Joanna the idea of recording that year in the agency, wanting to do a documentary on it, it became a best selling book. Slightly Foxed republished the book as one of their special edition classics, Bisous Frances
