What Makes the Endings of J.D. Salingers Books/or Stories so Effective?
J.D. Salinger’s endings leaves the readers surprised, even though the endings are ambiguous, but the endings seem to resolve the stories completely. An example of this is in the story “Banana Fish.” Just before Seymour Glass dies there is a scene in the elevator. In the elevator, he’s talking to a lady to stop lying about not looking at his feet. But the lady in the elevator insists she’s not looking at them, but he knows better.
