Synopsis
J. D. Salinger's daughter invades the famous privacy of her famous father and writes a candid memoir which, she says, has been therapeutic for her, a way to help her make sense of what she sees as a destructive childhood. She also writes extensively about the parallels between her father's fiction and his life, and about the effects of his mixed Jewish-Catholic background on his world view.

Industry Reviews
"DREAM CATCHER is really two books in one: a very short, at times acute critical biography of Peggy's father and an overlong, provisionally uplifting account of her own life....She claims she wrote it to answer her son's eventual questions about where his family came from, but that doesn't explain why she felt compelled to publish it while her father is still alive. It wouldn't have compromised the book's meager but undeniable worth--as a piece of mildly informative insider literary criticism, or as a better-written-than- most recovery memoir--to admit that her son's college fund may benefit along with his emotional well-being."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - David Kipen (09/07/2000)

"Because while one often feels deeply uneasy over what learns about the private person--reading this book is like overhearing one side of a bitter family quarrel--there is information here that can't help altering, and enlarging, our estimation of his work....[C]ertain revelations in this memoir may well prompt a reassessment of Salinger's place in American literature, add a dimension to the marginalized mystic he's become to so many....[T]he real problem with [Margaret Salinger's] book, the real problem with literary biography in general, is that while in some cases it can expand our sense of an author's work (as Margaret's account of her father's wartime experience undoubtedly does) more often it can be reductive."
New York Times Book Review - Ron Rosenbaum (10/08/2000)
