The Catcher in the Rye

Originally published in 1951 for adults, this novel has since been translated into almost all languages available to the world. And from what I understand, it's a rather popular work, selling almost 250, 000 copies each year. Considering the fact that it's 59 years old, that's quite a feat. It makes you wonder whether twilight will sell 250, 000 copies each year after its decline (though I seriously doubt so).
