Who is J.D. Salinger? Give your class some information on the famous recluse before reading his only novel, The Catcher in the Rye. His life and works are detailed, and there are even a few slides dedicated to controversies and criticism surrounding the novel. Twenty-five slides are provided, and they are very text heavy. Consider doing some light editing to cut down the amount of text, or break this presentation into two sections to give your class a break.
