that is such a great indie rock cover, isn't it?

I wish it was still printed with that cover. All the art for Salinger's work is v. lame now.

it is printed with that cover!

is it still the maroon and gold cover these days?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 4 March 2005 07:13 (twenty years ago)

No, it's white with black text and little diagonal rainbow stripe in the corner.

i've got that cover. they started re-printing them like that three years ago in hardcover. but i think it's available in paperback now, too.

I saw a new edition of it with that cover. Sometimes I think that about books, because music is SO CORRUPT, but it's still good, which is annoying. I mean like how lots of musicians earn 50 billion dollars or something. It's like actors.

I like how indie musicians earn like 50 bucks a month. It's all they deserve.

doesn't he have some stipulation about no illustrations on his books? that's HARDCORE MAN.

Catcher in the Rye is a total sellout book. Franny & Zooey is much better.

Somewhere J.D. is collaborating with Kevin Shields..

Because depressed, repressed people need a soundtrack too.

― Sara Sherr, Saturday, 5 March 2005 17:20 (twenty years ago)

Franny & Zooey is much better.
