About This Novel
"--We always, always, never forget our disgusting, insignificant self." Franny is the younger sister of the famous "Glass family" written by Salinger. Zooey is her elder brother. Their eldest brother Seymour, who was written about in the "Banana Fish" chapter of Nine Stories, suddenly shot himself during their honeymoon, leaving behind a pile of mysteries and a mysterious little green book. Years later, Franny is studying at a prestigious university. Faced with her boyfriend's bombast, she strives to play the docile bird out of "ancient and stubborn psychological patterns." She echoed, but inside she was irritated. She is tired of the vulgarity and shallowness of the world and suffers from her sobriety. She wanted to find peace in the little green book left by her elder brother Seymour, but she became even more unable to integrate into real society. When Franny lies at home, losing the strength to live, Zooey saves her with some spicy and witty words...
