I just read "A Section Man's Experience of TCITR" by Jim Rovira
<http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/antiutopia/salinger.htm>
and found the piece to be most enjoybable.  I may argue that it isn't
really "section manish" since there are only one or two passing critical
references, and since the essay is personal in some mighty fine ways.  I
enjoyed the fact that Antiutopia is an adult reader reading TCITR 
and that he doesn't revert to adolescence or sectionmanism to describe his
reading.  

I also read the above essay with a link to an essay I wrote a while ago.
It doesn't mention Salinger but it is about finding oneself through
failure...if anyone wants to look at it you can point your browser to:
