J.D. Salinger published just four books in his lifetime: “Nine Stories,” ″ Catcher in Rye,” ″Franny and Zooey” and a volume with two vellas “Raise High Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction.” last work to come out in his lifetime was story “Hapworth 16, 1924,” which appeared in New Yorker in 1965. Salinger rarely spoke to media and t only stopped releasing new work but rejected any reissues or e-book editions of his published material. This year marks centennial of his birth and signs of a new openness emerged in 2018 when his estate permitted new covers and a boxed edition of his old fiction to come out for 100th anniversary. A Salinger exhibit is planned later this year at New York Public Library, and or promotional events are in works.

Rumours and speculations over new books

Over past half-century, rumours and speculation intensified over if any new books existed and if y were of publishable quality. A former lover, Joyce Maynard, and Salinger’s daughter, Margaret, have both contended that author continued to write books, allegedly stored in a vault in author’s home in Cornish, New Hampshire. A 2013 documentary and book by Shane Saler and David Shields cited two “independent and separate sources” in predicting five new works. One of Salinger books would centre on “Catcher” protagonist Holden Caulfield and his family. Ors would draw on Salinger’s World War II years and his immersion in Eastern religion. Matt Salinger has dismissed contents of Saler-Shields project, but never definitively said that new work would appear.
