"My Salinger Year" is a time capsule for anyone enamored with the bygone era of literary New York—it's like being wrapped in a vintage cardigan that still smells faintly of tobacco and nostalgia. Joanna's story is at once a personal coming-of-age and a love letter to the written word, making it an enchanting read for not only aspiring writers but also those who relish the thought of life's serendipitous moments against a backdrop of fading glamour. Her intimate encounter with Salinger's world is one that stirs the soul and tickles the funny bone, bridging the gap between a dreamlike past and the stark present.
