I used to be completely anti towards the idea of pregnancy, but thinking about it, with Salinger being so non-western in so many ideas, what about the idea of pregnancy as a spiritual thing? It very often is, just not in America. Birth and creation... Hmmm. And PS: I have never been able to see the Glass stories as anything but a completely connected chronicle. Bears thinking about.
