The Cormac McCarthy Home Page is a good place to start for someone interested both in the writing of Cormac McCarthy and the literature of the American Southwest.

J.D. Salinger (The Bananafish Home Page)

http://slf.gweep.net/~sfoskett/jds/index.html

Salinger's wish for privacy and ownership have kept some of the best sites down, leaving sites only the ability to provide biography and bibliography. If anyone has any recent pictures of Salinger, this guy would probably appreciate them.
