A Perfect Day For Bananafish

A Perfect Day for Bananafish is a well known short story written by J. D. Salinger. It appeared in Nine Stories (1948). It tells about the honeymoon of a young man called Seymour Glass, a member of the prodigious Glass Family, which Salinger also wrote about in several other books, Franny and Zooey, Raise High The Roof Beam, Carpenters, and Hapworth 16, 1924. The word bananafish comes from a story that Seymour tells to a little girl on the beach which reflects the non-conformist and deeply pessimistic look of Seymour, the book as a whole, and Salinger himself.
