Phony Hatin'

I am sitting ontside the Rare Books Reading Room in Firestone Library.

I have just submitted two forms of government identification, filled out four authorized forms and been issued a special laminated Firestone photo ID.

In ten minutes, a metal box will arrive with J.D. Salinger's personal effects in it, and I will read the unpublished prequel to The Catcher in the Rye.

Not a joke.
