D. Salinger's fictional Glass familyas recalled by his closest brother, Buddy.'He was a great many things to a great many people while he lived, and virtually all things to his brothers and sisters in our somewhat outsized family. Surely he was all real things to us: our bluestriped unicorn, our doublelensed burning glass, our consultant genius, our portable conscience, our supercargo, and our one full poet...'
