After my initial sadness at the end of season one, I started to read Catcher in the Rye. I came across an authors note that J.D. Salinger only wrote one other book, just one, and many people wanted him to write more. In the Majors talk with the Laughing Man, in the last episode, he mentions how an author makes his works more popular by never releasing a new one. Could this be a direct allusion to J.D. Salinger? Am I the only who thinks this, or am I just so stupid that I'm the only one who didn't notice until now?

Not at all. There are many writers that only write one novel. Most people write because they have something to say. After they''ve said it they.re done. End of story. confused

I know, but there seem to be so many references to Salinger, that it hardly seems like coincidence. The words that circle on the Laughing Mans emblem, and he mentioned authors who put out one novel very soon after quoting Salinger.

The line: "I thought I'd pretend I was one of those deaf mutes." on The Laughing man's cybermask is a line from Catcher in the Rye. There are many other references that I can't remember.

"I thought I'd pretend I was one of those deaf mutes." The coolest quote in the book! That b*****d try to run away and go to west. J.D Salinger is a good author no doubt nuff said

did anyone ever get the chance to read Salinger''s The Laughing Man? It''s an interesting story, though I don''t really see the major point. Hell, some of his other stories were so odd, I had to look at internet for some analyses.

Sir Christopher Bannex After my initial sadness at the end of season one, I started to read Catcher in the Rye. I came across an authors note that J.D. Salinger only wrote one other book, just one, and many people wanted him to write more. In the Majors talk with the Laughing Man, in the last episode, he mentions how an author makes his works more popular by never releasing a new one. Could this be a direct allusion to J.D. Salinger? Am I the only who thinks this, or am I just so stupid that I'm the only one who didn't notice until now? I just reread your post. I'm not quite sure if you realize that the Laughing Man was a short story written by Salinger. That's why there are so many references to him.

In stand alone complex, LM says that the people named him "the Laughing Man"; he didn't choose to be LM himself...
