Oh, yeah, and I wanted to add that, following Tim, I see Buddy behind
"Franny" the same way I don't see him behind Catcher. Salinger has a gift
for writing in different voices, and each character he creates, each persona,
has its own voice. I think we can see Buddy behind some stories and not
behind others.
