The famous book by J.D. Salinger, "The Catcher in the Rye" was such a famous book that he wrote in secret after that, and barely ever published anything ever again. He died like Franz Kafka with orders for his manuscripts not to be published. In Kafka's case, he told his best friend to burn everything he wrote, but he published them instead. J.D. Salinger just died, and it was in his will that his writing was not to be published, but the estate decided to opt out on this clause and go to press with his works. You can expect more books from Salinger posthumously, as well as a feature film on the Catcher in the Rye, which J.D. also was against the production of.

Holden Caufield, the main character in the book, was a nice man. He wanted to go around and erase all the graffiti that said FUCK YOU on the walls; he also wanted to be the catcher in the rye. You see, as it was described in the book, there was a cliff, and people would fall off the cliff and land in this field of rye where Holden lay. I am not sure if it was just the force of life that propelled people off the cliff, or was it the fungus that grows on rye called Ergot, which is a hallucinogen, causing people to think they can fly? Rye is a grain that has long been cultivated since agriculture began in the Cradle of Civilization, like barley, wheat, they are all just but grasses, so by the time the Middle Ages rolled around people were quite aware of this Ergot fungus on the Rye, and would trip with it throughout time.
