Ein Kleinod. Prägnant und tiefsinnig erzählt Salinger seine Geschichten, die nie langweilig, zum Teil großartig aus dem Leben der amerikanischen Mittelschicht vor und nach dem 2. WK geschnitten sind. Leider gibt es im Buch kein Inhaltsverzeichnis (warum nur nicht?), so dass man sich durch die Seiten wühlen muss, um herauszufinden welche Geschichten enthalten sind. Für mich mit Abstand die beste Geschichte kommt gleich zuerst: "Ein idealer Tag für Bananenfische". Auch sehr gut "Onkel Wiggily in Connecticut" (S.27-49), "Hübsch mein Mund, die Augen grün" (S. 140-157) und "Teddy" (S.201-239). Alles aber macht Lust auf mehr von diesem Autor.
