I'm sorry, scottie b, could you tell me please where the quote is from
(SAI? page #?)...I have been thinking about your q and in fact am in the
process of writing about"The Inverted Forest" as a message of how class
and creativity are linked in this salinger story...and linking that
thinking to pages 102-3 (paperback SAI) where salinger in one sentence
(the BIG one that begins with "But what" and ends by concluding "ever
known." Maybe Salinger felt fragmentation like that in cubism was
contrary to how he was trying to keep the glass family together,
or that cubism elevates too much beyond a "disease" level of life...dunno
yet, will
