You never know what Salinger has "up his sleave" what about that book in
1999, he obviously has to have something to do with its publication.
Possibly his last wish may be to release some things. In addition
Salinger could be lurking among this very mailing list, he's not on
another planet for god sakes. I guess I'm just a romantic in this
respect. In the meantime stock-up on bootlegs however unethical it may
be. Then tell be where to find them.
Best,
Lauren
