	Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Raise High the Roof Beam, Young Carpenters is the second in the Glass Family series written by J D Salinger.
		Like many of the other Glass family stories, Raise High is narrated by Buddy Glass, the second of the Glass brothers, and describes Buddy's visit on Army leave (during World War II, in 1942) to attend the wedding of his brother Seymour, and tells of the events that follow the wedding's non-occurrence.
		The eldest Glass brother, Seymour, is not the protagonist of this story, as he is of many others (A Perfect Day for Bananafish, Seymour: An Introduction, Hapworth 16, 1924).

		Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters is a complete joy...and like the other Glass stories, a fun part of the family puzzle.
		Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: an Introduction both come from a period in which Salinger became less and less concerned with the narrative; a time when some said he had lost his touch, and become nothing but a self-glorifying, self-righteous shill for his own zen worldview.
		Raise High, the first of the two novellettes that make up the book, is Salinger at his best; Salinger-as-Buddy narrates the story with a sort of harried amusement, and the kind of humor that Catcher made him famous for.

		The author and his New Yorker stories -- most notably "Raise the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour, an Introduction" -- are apt to appear as mere extensions of the modern iconoclassic.

		Jerome David Salinger, was born in New York City on Jan. 1, 1919, and established his reputation on the basis of a single novel, The Catcher in the Rye (1951), whose principal character, Holden Caulfield, epitomized the growing pains of a generation of high school and college students.

	The New York Review of Books: Justice to J.D. Salinger
		By the late Fifties, when the stories "Franny" and "Zooey" and "Raise High the Roof-Beam, Carpenters" were coming out in the magazine, Salinger was no longer the universally beloved author of The Catcher in the Rye; he was now the seriously annoying creator of the Glass family.
		In "Raise High the Roof-Beam, Carpenters," Salinger achieves a brilliant effect with the lighting of a cigar that has been held unlit by a small old deaf-mute man during the first ninety pages of the story; and in "Zooey" another cigar is instrumental in the dawning of a recognition.
		Not only were her fingers of an extraordinary length and shapeliness—such as, very generally speaking, one wouldn't have expected of a medium stout woman's fingers—but they featured, as it were, a somewhat imperial-looking tremor; a deposed Balkan queen or a retired favorite courtesan might have had such an elegant tremor.
