Hi!
  I finished Franny and Zooey last night, and it really surprised me, because
well, it ended. Usually towards the close of a book I get a feeling of
finality. This time, I was expecting at least twenty pages more of Zooey
explaining the Fat Lady, especially since he seemed to be perfectly willing to
largely expound on every other topic, or as Franny put it "He has about forty
definitions for everything!" And I was really getting into it, then, it ended.
Kind of frustrating, perhaps I'll reread it. Does Salinger go into anymore
about Seymour's Fat Lady? I thought Franny was the easier read, but enjoyed
Zooey's character much more. Is that how everyone else thought? I'm supposed
to come up with a thesis statement of the book, at I think it's going to be
centered on religion...
