Years after his last published work, author J.D. Salinger still captures the imagination – both for the fiction he created and his retreat from public life. Salinger has lived quietly in Cornish, New Hampshire for the past half century.

We’ll also wrap our heads around combinitorics, cryptography and computing- and discover how theoretical math relates to everyday life.
