Who wrote “The Catcher in the Rye”?

  1. Kurt Vonnegut

  2. J.D. Salinger

  3. Ernest Hemingway

  4. Mark Twain

The correct answer is: J.D. Salinger

"J.D. Salinger" wrote "The Catcher in the Rye". Kurt Vonnegut wrote "Slaughterhouse-Five", Ernest Hemingway wrote "The Old Man and the Sea", and Mark Twain wrote "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn". While these other authors are well-known and their works are highly recommended, they are not the author of "The Catcher in the Rye". Only J.D. Salinger is credited with writing this classic novel, making option B the correct choice.
