Well, obviously (: But every fictional character has its real-life
precedents, I think. No matter how subconscious - I've gone back and looked
at things I wrote and seen instantly how characters were inspired that
never occured to me at the time. On the other hand, Salinger may have
consciously had self destructive child-genius figures in mind when he came
up with Holden - Rimbaud, Thomas Chatterton - who knows?
