That's odd, because this subject is one of the ones that interests me the
most, because the Glass stories we have are most likely the tiny jigsaw
pieces from Salinger's great 35 year opus which may be the novel to end all
novels - you can imagine after 35 years there may be an entire created
world locked away in that safe of his. Did you find the book uninteresting
because of Alsen or because of the topic? I wasn't even aware of any books
about it (then again a lot of the more obscure Salinger books just don't
make it over here at all).
