"Nine Stories" collects nine short stories Salinger published in The New Yorker. Each story is self-contained and interconnected, describing the "love and filth" of the postwar generation of young people in Salinger's eyes. In the story, there are innocent and desperate young people, there are precocious and confused children, and there are mothers who struggle to integrate into their children's hearts... Salinger allows the young people, children and immature adults in his novels to experience or see love, desire for love, death, despair and madness, showing the flashes and dilemmas of love and beauty in reality, revealing the fetters and drags of worldly interpersonal relationships on people, telling the importance of understanding life, and exploring and pursuing the liberation of the soul. Salinger, the master of literature, told the truth of life in dense words that were plain, calm, calm, but containing huge energy.

This set contains a total of five books: "The Catcher in the Rye", "Nine Stories", "Francny and Zooey", "Raise the Beams, Carpenters: Seymour: A Biography" and "The Catcher in the Rye" in Chinese and English. Among them, Salinger's classic "The Catcher in the Rye" tells the story of Holden, a sixteen-year-old middle school student who was born in a middle-class family in New York. His parents and teachers wanted him to study hard so that he could stand out in the future, but all he did in school all day long was talk about alcohol and women. He couldn't understand everything around him, had no intention of studying, and was always punished. When he was expelled for the fourth time, Holden did not go home and wandered alone in New York for a day and two nights. He finally collapsed completely and lay down in a mental hospital...
