I'd say that McCarthy and Salinger are both overrated but no one has given a shit about McCarthy since she died and Salinger would have long ago faded into the literary twilight zone were it not for moony, acne and angst ridden, poetry writing teens...

@6 So, you're saying that Salinger would long ago have faded if it weren't for... humans?

It would be better if you'd explain specifically what McCarthy's take on Salinger was, and what Sean's take on McCarthy was.

@8: Are you serious? The photo itself includes McCarthy's position and Nelson's position.

y'know, when we've gotten to the point of reviewing reviews of reviews, it's time to step back, take a deep breath and remember we have much more important things to worry about.
