Raise High the Roofbeam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction

Raise High the Roofbeam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction
J.D. Salinger

Raise High the Roofbeam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction are both short stories about the Glass family, the first being about Seymour Glass's failed Wedding and the second being his brother, Buddy's description. 


There isn't anything special about either of these stories. If you're a fan of Salinger's other work you'll probably be disappointed. There is a lot of unnecessary rambling, mostly in Seymour. Both stories do give insight into the Glass family, but other than that they are dry and dull.
